Wolfgang Radlegger (born May 6, 1947 in Grödig , Salzburg ) is an Austrian politician ( SPÖ ).

Life

At the age of three, Wolfgang Radlegger moved with his parents to Buenos Aires ( Argentina ) in 1950 , where he attended a private school until 1955. After two more years of attending primary school in Grödig, he graduated from secondary school by 1965 (today the Bundesrealgymnasium Salzburg ). After graduating from high school , he studied law at the University of Salzburg and then worked until 1968 as an employee at the municipal authorities of the state capital Salzburg.

In 1969 he was elected parliamentary group secretary of his party, the SPÖ, in the Salzburg state parliament. 1974 to 1979 ( seventh legislative period ) he was managing director of the SPÖ Salzburg .

Radlegger held his first political mandate from January 1978 to May 1979, when he became a member of the Federal Council for the SPÖ in Vienna . In May 1979, Radlegger became a member of the Haslauer II government under Governor Haslauer senior in the state of Salzburg , state councilor for building construction and housing. In September 1984 he became 1st Deputy Governor in the Provincial Government Haslauer III . In the same year he was elected party chairman of the SPÖ Salzburg, as well as a member of the board of the SPÖ.

At the end of August 1989, Radlegger announced his resignation from all political positions. He justified his move with the fact that he was good friends with the defendant in the so-called WEB trial . The WEB-Building trust-IMMAG had in the 1970s and 1980s, investment products, similar to a pyramid scheme , sold, but hardly promised profit. Connections to banks and politics contributed to the fact that the WEB-Bautreuhand-IMMAG , although already insolvent in 1983, could work for another six years. There were a total of 25,000 victims throughout Austria and a financial loss of 2.1 billion schillings (corresponds to around 221 million euros when adjusted for inflation).
In 1990 Radlegger was appointed to the supervisory board of Wüstenrot Bausparkasse . He later became General Director and in 2003 Managing Director. In 2005 he became deputy chairman of the banking and insurance division in the Salzburg Chamber of Commerce ; In 2007 he was also appointed to the Supervisory Board of BAWAG PSK .
