history
In 1957 the federally owned society for the promotion of the family home mbH (GEFA) was founded in Cologne. This was preceded by a resolution by the German Bundestag to implement the Second Housing Act (Housing and Family Home Act) of 1956 to support private home construction with 8 million DM. These funds should be administered by the federally owned Deutsche Pfandbriefanstalt (Depfa Bank) . However, the distribution should be done by the ecclesiastical settlement societies. On the part of the Evangelical Church, the non-profit settlement society of the aid organization of the Evangelical Church in Germany mbH (GSG) offered itself for this . In the post-war years, the Catholic Church had no suitable central (nationwide) organization for building settlements.
On the initiative of Paul Lücke and the then Ministerialrat Heinrich Fiedler, GEFA was founded in 1957. The 17 founding shareholders included representatives from Catholic settlement organizations from various dioceses , politicians Franz-Josef Heider and Lücke himself. The company was initially based in Cologne , but it was relocated to Frankfurt am Main in 1958 , where office space in the Bischoff-Keller house had previously been rented were. A contract with Depfa transferred the company 3 million DM shortly after it was founded. GEFA was to use this money to acquire stakes in the church settlement works to increase their capital. Where this was not possible, GEFA was able to make capital available as a loan to a settlement agency in individual cases. The GEFA thus also assumed the function of a credit institution .
In 1959 the evangelical settlement works were integrated into the GEFA, which involved a capital increase. The 15-member biconfessional supervisory board elected in 1959 consisted of five representatives each from the Catholic and Protestant churches, Werner Kock as a representative of the economy and Herbert Czaja and three other representatives of the federal government. In the 1960s and 70s, the company's field of activity changed. The original core business of GEFA was the creation of satellite towns to cope with the post-war demands on the housing market. From the mid-1960s, activities shifted towards the development of building land and the preparation of development plans on behalf of the municipalities. The company was restructured for this purpose under the managing director Joseph Bach. Additional employees from civil engineering professions, such as civil engineers, surveyors and draftsmen, were hired. As a lender, the company took on the bridging financing of the residential construction projects. These changes also led to the renaming of the company. From 1964 on it was called "Deutsche Bauland- und Kreditgesellschaft mbH", abbreviated to "Baulandkredit". With the introduction of the Urban Development Promotion Act (StBauFG) of July 27, 1971, the company's area of responsibility expanded again. In addition, there was the renovation and development of the ailing inner cities. In 1972 it was renamed “Deutsche Stadtentwicklungs- und Kreditgesellschaft mbH”, which was already known as “DSK”.
Due to the financial crisis in the 1970s, the DSK got into financial difficulties. In 1974 the federal government, the main shareholder of DSK, issued a letter of comfort. In 1983, the "Gemeinnützige Deutsche Wohnungsbaugesellschaft mbH" (Deutschbau) took over the federal government's shares in DSK. The shareholders of Deutschbau were the federal government and the Deutsche Bundespost. As a result, DSK changed from a direct to an indirect federal holding company.
After reunification, the DSK opened an office in Weimar and participated in redevelopment measures in the new federal states. The most important project in the company's history was the commissioning as the main development agency for the Berlin parliament and government district . <rewf> berlin.de: DSK as the development agency for the government district , accessed on August 14, 2020 </ref>
In 1997 DSK was sold to Bankgesellschaft Berlin GmbH (IBG), whereupon the company was given its current name “DSK Deutsche Stadt- und Grundstücksentwicklungsgesellschaft mbH”. In 2001, most of IBG's business activities were outsourced to the newly founded Immobilien- und Baumanagement AG (IBAG). DSK became a subsidiary of IBAG, which in turn belongs to Landesbank Berlin Holding AG. Due to financial difficulties at Bankgesellschaft Berlin GmbH, DSK was sold in December 2005 to the Hamburg “HSH Real Estate AG Group”, a subsidiary of HSH Nordbank AG. In 2007 DSK merged with BauGrund Stadtentwicklung GmbH to bundle core competencies and expand their spatial presence. One year later, DSK acquired BauBeCon Sanierungträger GmbH in Bremen, thereby strengthening its position in the areas of urban renewal, conversion and land development. In 2009 GBC BaulandConsult GmbH became a subsidiary of DSK, which has many years of experience in the management and analysis of building development and building construction projects.
With PMC Immobilienmanagement GmbH, DSK gained a player in the Hamburg market in 2010. In the same year, the shares in HSH Real Estate AG were acquired by a consortium of private investors.
In 2012, DSK merged with the north German BIG BAU group of companies and founded Deutsche Komfortbau GmbH in 2015. Together with BIG BAU, DSK formed DSK-BIG. In the summer of 2017, BauBeCon left the DSK-BIG group of companies.
DSK GmbH has been an independent company again since July 2020.
