Tibor von Jankó, Managing Director and Co-founder of the HBC Group, as well as Managing Director of Albis Versicherungsmakler GmbH, will step down from his operational functions as of June 30, 2025, and transfer responsibility to capable hands. Tibor von Jankó significantly shaped the strategic direction and development of the HBC Group from its inception. As a founding member, he brought entrepreneurial foresight, integrative strength, and deep market knowledge to the group.
The management of Albis will be handed over to a dual leadership consisting of Jan M. Leuchtenberger and Ralph Tonnius, who, as part of the strategic realignment at the Hamburg location, will also be jointly responsible for the company Barg & Büttner. – An initial and important step into the future, in which two companies will merge into one brokerage house in the coming year. Jan M. Leuchtenberger has been the long-standing Managing Director at Barg & Büttner, part of the HBC Group. Ralph Tonnius previously served as an authorized signatory at Albis and possesses a deep understanding of the company, its clients, and its employee culture. Through his commitment, Tibor von Jankó has contributed to Albis and Barg & Büttner pursuing a common path in the future.

Die erfolgreiche Entwicklung von Albis und der HBC-Gruppe in den vergangenen Jahren bedeutet mir persönlich sehr viel. Es ist eine besondere Freude und Erfüllung, diesen Weg strategisch und operativ mitgestaltet zu haben – von der Gründungsidee bis zur heutigen Stärke.

Tibor von Jankó adds: “Precisely for this reason, now is a good time to hand over responsibility to trusted hands. I am convinced that the team will continue the shared course with fresh impetus. In this context, I am also relinquishing my responsibility as Managing Director of the HBC Group and look forward to observing further developments from a different perspective in the future.”
“We are very pleased to continue Tibor’s successful work together with the team and to drive forward the consolidation under one roof at HBC,” says Jan Leuchtenberger. Ralph Tonnius adds: “Our aspiration remains: to work collaboratively, reliably, and close to people – both internally and externally.”
Our special thanks go to Tibor von Jankó for his foresight, his commitment, and the passion with which he built and shaped the companies. As a visionary and leader, he understood how to bring people together, foster potential, and set the course for the future.
