The television group ProSiebenSat.1 will have a new boss in November – manager Bert Habets will take over Rainer Beaujean’s job. Habets was previously a member of the supervisory board, now the former head of RTL Group is moving to the post of CEO. The change at the top of the group comes as a surprise – even if the Munich-based company’s share price has been at a low level for some time and should not make the owners happy.

The new appointment again raises the question of what plan co-owner Media for Europe (MFE) is pursuing. The Berlusconi family is behind the holding and the media company Mediaset is also organized here. MFE controls around a quarter of the voting rights in ProSiebenSat.1. Manager Katharina Behrends has just been appointed as head of MFE in the German-speaking countries. In this issue of “Media Week” we talk about the situation at ProSiebenSat.1.
