The business group of the deceased richest Czech Petr Kellner is largely controlled by his wife Renáta, who holds over 59 percent in PPF, whereas each of his four children own almost ten percent.
The PPF group is experiencing its most turbulent time since its creation, withdrawing from Russia with losses and also withdrawing from China. The PPF is looking for new opportunities in the West, but so far these are relatively small investments.
There are several strong voices affecting the leadership of the group. Its CEO is Petr Kellner's longtime partner Jiří Šmejc, however at the strategy level there is also involvement of Renata Kellnerova as well as Daniel Křetínský, the second richest Czech, in tandem with his partner Anna Kellnerová.
The driving force in terms of performance and value for PPF is telecommunications, both in the form of the infrastructural Cetin Group and in the form of individual operators - O2 in the Czech Republic and Yettel in the Balkans.
