Joachim von Berenberg-Consbruch
Joachim von Berenberg-Consbruch (né Joachim von Consbruch 1940) is a German banker, who served as a personally liable partner at Berenberg Bank 1978–2005 and the firm's head 1979–2005. He is now chairman of the Berenberg Bank Stiftung, a philanthropic foundation.
Although he has worked for Berenberg Bank his entire career, he is not himself a member of the Berenberg-Gossler family or descended from the Berenberg family. He is the son of Hans Dietrich von Consbruch and Irmgard Else Meyer. After his father died in 1941, his mother was married in her second marriage to Cornelius Johann Heinrich Hellmuth von Berenberg-Gossler, a member of the prominent Berenberg-Gossler banking family. Joachim von Consbruch subsequently combined his family name Consbruch with the first part of his stepfather's name.[1]
