ALSO announced the resignation of Beate Flamm, SVP Sustainable Change, after the next Annual General Meeting. Under her leadership, the coordination of Investor Relations was established within the company and the commitment to environmental, social and governance topics, as an increasingly important part of capital market communication, was further expanded. In future, both IR and ESG will be part of the Finance division.

Marketing, for which Flamm was also responsible, continues to be managed as an independent Centre of Competence and will be staffed internally.
