Why is Dan Křetínský not at the head of PPF? Kellner calls him love, he did not gain empire

After the tragic death of Petr Kellner, a fight ensued. The struggle for property worth almost three hundred billion crowns. The Czech billionaire was killed in a helicopter accident in Alaska. Its giant PPF will now be headed by minority shareholder Ladislav Bartoníček. Many are surprised that Daniel Křetínský, who has only family ties with Kellner – did not get a chance – the billionaire’s daughter Anna Kellnerová goes out with him.

Petr Kellner was undoubtedly a visionary with both bright and dark sides. Few people knew about business. Economists have agreed that it will be very difficult to replace it. The richest Czech built his empire in a relatively short time.

In 1989, he made a living as a film assistant. He was twenty-five. Fifteen years later, Forbes ranked him among the richest men on the planet. The establishment of PPF, which owns 99 percent, covers 21 countries. PPF was established in 1991 as the Administration of the First Privatization Fund as

At the beginning, together with Kellner, there was a businessman Milan Vinkler and the company Sklo Union Teplice. In 1996, after success in both rounds of coupon privatization, the fund was transformed into a joint-stock company, ie PPF investiční holding.

Would Křetínský be interested in the position at all?

PPF includes countless companies that bring huge profits. “The PPF Group invests in a number of sectors from financial services to telecommunications, biotechnology, real estate, and engineering,” company website.

The giant includes Home Credit, Air Bank, Mall Group, O2 Czech Republic, Škoda Transportation, Cetin, as the operator of the largest data and communication network in the Czech Republic, and Sotio, a company focusing on research in the field of oncology and autoimmune diseases.

In connection with the management of the holding, everyone came up with the name Daniel Křetínský. The owner of the football Sparta and the dollar billionaire have been pairing with Kellner’s daughter Anna since 2017. Maybe that predisposes him to one day he could be Kellner’s successor. But not yet.

He and Kellner’s daughter, Anna, have been forming a couple since 2017

“Daniel Křetínský has experience with the billion-dollar business and there is a family bond, so such a solution is offered. But Mr. Křetínský’s property is negligible compared to Mr. Kellner’s property. We are talking about a different property here. It is therefore not clear in advance that Křetínský would be interested in managing such property at all, “he said in favor iRozhlas.cz economist Štěpán Křeček.

“It is an unimaginable job and we would have to ask Mr. Křetínský if he would be interested in it. I dare say that PPF’s management is a difficult position that will certainly attract attention. And it is basically impossible to predict who will take it, “Křeček claimed before the announcement. The position was eventually acquired by the long-term minority shareholder Ladislav Bartoníček.
