EAB Group Plc: Focusing of operations into two business areas and changes to the Executive Group
On 1 January 2019, EAB Group Plc ("EAB", "Company") will focus its operations into two business areas. The Company's Board of Directors has decided today 19 December 2018 upon this change to the organisational model as well as on the related changes to the Executive Group.
Previously, the Company's business operations were divided into four business areas: 1) private customers, 2) Private Banking, 3) corporate services and 4) institutional customers. In the future, EAB's business operations will be divided into two areas: private customers and institutional customers. Private Banking activities will merge with private customer operations. Corporate services will become part of CEO Daniel Pasternack's remit and will no longer be an individual business area.
The Board has also decided on changes to the composition of the Executive Group. In the future, the Executive Group operating under the CEO will comprise CFO Roman Cherkasov, Vice President Raisa Friberg, Head of Private Customer Business Area Rami Niemi, Head of Administration and HR Taavi Rissanen and Head of Institutional Customer Business Area Kristian Warras. The extended Executive Group previously in operation in the Company has been disbanded.
These organisational changes aim at clarifying the management system, enhancing leadership and at making both administration and the organisation more agile.
