The former ÖVP leader Josef Taus is dead
Josef Taus is dead. The industrialist and former ÖVP leader died at the age of 91. Taus headed the ÖVP from 1975 to 1979. After losing his second election to Bruno Kreisky, he returned to business and later built up Management Trust Holding (MTH).
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen During his long career, Taus was, among other things, Chairman of the Management Board of Girozentrale, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of ÖIAG and Managing Partner of Constantia IndustrieverwaltungsgesmbH.
MTH was primarily intended to buy up and restructure ailing companies - with varying degrees of success. For example, it failed to restructure the Upper Austrian motorcycle manufacturer KTM, where production has been at a standstill since Friday.
On the other hand, MTH still holds shares in the book and media chain Libro, acquired in 2003, and the office supplies discounter Pagro, acquired in 2004.
Just a few days ago, Hannes Androsch (SPÖ), a former top politician, died at the age of 86.
