Dr. Nedim Cen has resigned from his mandate as member and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Accentro Real Estate AG for personal reasons, effective March 31, 2026. The Management Board and the Supervisory Board expressed gratitude for Dr. Cen's valuable contribution and commitment during the company's restructuring period. This leadership change occurs as the German residential real estate specialist continues its strategic realignment.
To maintain full functionality of the Supervisory Board, the company initiated a court appointment process for an additional member. Following proposals from both the Management Board and the Supervisory Board, the court appointed Mr. Dariush Ghassemi-Moghadam as a new Supervisory Board member. This appointment ensures the board maintains its governance capacity during a critical phase of corporate development.
Mr. Ghassemi-Moghadam brings substantial legal and financial expertise to the supervisory role. As a lawyer with many years of experience in banking and capital markets law as well as real estate law, his background aligns directly with Accentro's core business operations. Furthermore, his previous management positions in the banking sector, including serving as Chief Financial Officer, provide him with financial oversight capabilities particularly relevant to the company's current needs.
The appointment holds significance for Accentro's ongoing restructuring efforts. According to the announcement, Mr. Ghassemi-Moghadam will support the company in its restructuring process and help drive forward the strategic realignment. This suggests his expertise will be applied to financial restructuring, legal compliance, and strategic planning as the company navigates its transformation. For stakeholders, including investors and partners, this appointment signals continuity in governance and specialized oversight during a period of change.
Accentro Real Estate AG operates as a residential investor and market leader in housing privatisation in Germany, with regional focus extending beyond Berlin to major cities in Central Germany and the Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region. The company's business activities encompass three core areas: tenant-oriented sales of apartments to private owner-occupiers and capital investors, portfolio sales to institutional investors, management of its own real estate portfolio, and third-party services. Company shares are partially listed in the General Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, with further shares remaining unlisted.

The leadership transition carries implications for the real estate investment sector in Germany. Supervisory board changes at publicly-traded real estate companies often reflect strategic shifts or responses to market conditions. In this case, the appointment of a professional with specific expertise in banking, capital markets, and real estate law suggests Accentro is prioritizing financial restructuring and legal governance as part of its transformation. For the industry, this move may indicate how real estate firms are adapting their governance structures to navigate complex financial and regulatory environments, particularly following periods of restructuring.
