Medien: Burda spaltet Geschäft in zwei Unternehmen auf
Der Medien- und Beteiligungsbereich sollen künftig rechtlich voneinander getrennt sein. Das dürfte auch Verkaufspläne des Medienkonzerns vereinfachen.
The media company Burda has split into two legally independent entities: Burda Media and Burda Equity, the company announced on Tuesday. According to the statement, this separation aims to create "two robust, focused companies." The legal implementation is expected to be finalized by 2028 at the latest. The owners, Patriarch Hubert Burda and his two children, Jacob and Elisabeth, are set to maintain full ownership of both companies through a holding company.
Burda had already undergone internal restructuring last year, clearly separating the two business sectors. The most recognized brands in Burda's media portfolio are the magazines "Focus" and "Bunte." In its investment business, Burda is active with brands such as "HolidayCheck," "Cyberport," and Xing. The restructuring of the portfolio is being facilitated, especially in the investment sector, where Burda has been attempting to streamline itself.
