Officers

5

The Member Of The Executive Board of LANXESS Aktiengesellschaft on record is Joachim Reinders; 5 officers are shown here, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register).

The register reports 103 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at LANXESS Aktiengesellschaft sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

LANXESS Aktiengesellschaft has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 11 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 7 jurisdictions. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 11 subsidiaries span Germany, Chile, Canada, France, United Arab Emirates, United States, and 1 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Two of the 11 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
