Viessmann agrees to buy Bayern stake, Di Rezze names direct-deal head

Di Rezze's new direct-investment head is also CFO of two SPACs sponsored by the office's principals, which hold more than $500 million in trust.

At a glance

  1. The stake was originally 5% of the company; because the purchase runs through a capital increase, Viessmann's final holding will differ from that figure.
  2. Di Rezze Family Office named Joseph Tonnos managing director to lead direct investments, effective Oct. 20.
  3. For family offices building a direct-deal team, the Di Rezze hire bundles two roles: its direct-investment lead is also CFO of two SPACs sponsored by the office's principals.

Viessmann Generations Group agreed on Oct. 22 to buy the last available equity stake in FC Bayern München AG, one of four items in a deal round-up published by FO Pro — The Family Office Professional. The stake was originally 5% of the company; because the purchase runs through a capital increase, Viessmann's final holding will differ from that figure. FO Pro describes the buyer as a fourth-generation Munich family business.

Di Rezze Family Office named Joseph Tonnos managing director to lead direct investments, effective Oct. 20. The Miami single-family office of Arghavan and Justin Di Rezze also saw Tonnos become CFO of Soren Acquisition Corp. and Praetorian Acquisition Corp., two Nasdaq-listed SPACs sponsored by the office's principals. He is a six-time SPAC sponsor and was most recently a managing director at Roth Capital Partners, per the FO Pro account. Retired Army Lt. Gen. Roger Cloutier Jr. joined both boards.

For family offices building a direct-deal team, the Di Rezze hire bundles two roles: its direct-investment lead is also CFO of two SPACs sponsored by the office's principals. Those vehicles hold more than $500 million in trust between them, so one executive covers private-deal sourcing and listed-vehicle finance, a split worth asking about when a single-family office hires one person for both.

Companion Spine completed on Oct. 28 its integration of Paradigm Spine, which it acquired in December 2025, creating a combined company with about 82 employees and sales in 36 countries.

Financial terms were not disclosed.
