Detlev Karsten Rohwedder (October 16, 1932 - April 1, 1991) was a German manager and politician, as member of the Social Democratic Party. He was manager of Treuhandanstalt.
Rohwedder was born in Gotha. While responsible for the privatisation of former communist East Germany he was murdered by a military-grade sharp-shooter while standing at the window of his highly guarded house in Düsseldorf. Though never convicted, several members of the leftist terrorist organisation RAF are assumed to be responsible for the murder.
Reportedly opposed to an unrestricted sell-out of GDR's public-owned factories he may have occasionally favoured a worker-owned solution.
His successor Birgit Breuel, daughter of a millionaire banker, was more in favour of a speedy sell-off to investors.
