Ist Galeria noch zu retten? Das zeigen Insider-Recherchen

Three bankruptcies, a recent restart – and now back in crisis mode. The long-established department store group Galeria is in deep trouble. Markus Dentz, editor-in-chief of FINANCE and Der Treasurer, has been following the case for some time and has conducted intensive research in recent weeks. His assessment is sobering. An insider, whom Dentz quotes in an interview with FINANCE TV, sums up the situation succinctly: "It's two past twelve, not five to twelve." What this means in concrete terms: Galeria's financial resources are apparently now very tight. Sales slumps since October, weak Christmas business, and a continued poor year in 2026 have set a downward spiral in motion, while at the same time trade credit insurers, lenders, and landlords are increasing the pressure. What you can expect in the interview: • Why the trade credit insurer Eurodelkredere is so powerful and what its minimum liquidity requirements mean for Galeria. • The role Bain Capital and the US firm Gordon Brothers play in a potential new financing round. • What management changes, even deep within the finance department, reveal about the company's health. • How Galeria is trapped in a classic vicious cycle and what it would take to break free. • What surprised Markus Dentz most during his recent research.
