history

With the establishment of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Bundesanzeiger Verlag began its work as an announcement organ in 1949. Until 1998, the federal government held 70% of the publisher's shares, until 34.9% were partially privatized . In October 2006, the publishing house M. DuMont Schauberg took over the remaining 35.10% of the shares from the Federal Republic of Germany and 32.45% of the shares from the publishing group Wertpapier-Mitteilungen Keppler, Lehmann GmbH & Co. KG in Frankfurt am Main. It thus completely owns the publisher.

The remaining federal shares in the Bundesanzeiger Verlagsgesellschaft were sold in 2006 to the M. Dumont Schauberg publishing group, which thus owns 100% of the shares in the Bundesanzeiger Verlag. It is highly controversial whether a bidding process was started in 2005 in which other publishers besides the M. Dumont Schauberg publishing group took part. In any case, no other bidders are publicly known. Shortly before the publishing house was privatized, he was commissioned to produce and sell the Federal Law Gazette.

After the privatization, on January 1, 2007 a new regulation came into force of the publication obligation for corporations, which had existed for decades ( EHUG ). According to this, the more than one million German corporations are obliged to publish at least their annual financial statements in the electronic Federal Gazette for a fee. According to the participation reports published by the Federal Ministry of Finance for the years 2002 to 2005, the Federal Republic of Germany was already able to generate annual profits of millions (2004 and 2005: 4.2 million euros each net) from its participation.
