Management changes at Handelsbanken from 1 April
Handelsbanken has made the decision to form a new Executive Team. This change is effective as of 1 April. The Executive Team will consist of the following members:
- Michael Green, President and Group Chief Executive.
- Carl Cederschiöld, Head of Handelsbanken Finance and CFO. He is currently the Bank’s CFO.
- Per Beckman, Head of Handelsbanken Credit. He is currently the Bank’s Chief Credit Officer.
- Cecilia Lundin, Head of Handelsbanken Human Resources. She is currently the Bank’s Chief HR Officer.
- Mattias Forsberg, Head of Handelsbanken IT. He is currently the Bank’s CIO.
- Catharina Belfrage Sahlstrand, Head of Handelsbanken Sustainability and Communications. She is currently the Bank’s Sustainability and Climat Officer.
- Maria Hedin will continue as Head of Handelsbanken’s independent risk control.
- Dan Lindwall, responsible for subsidiaries and Group-wide matters.
The position of Country General Manager for Sweden will be abolished. Instead, the CEO will also assume operational responsibility for the Swedish operations.
The changes are being implemented with the objective of improving efficiency at the Bank’s central staff functions and business support units.
“A slightly streamlined Executive Team and an even flatter organisation means also that those of us working to support the business have short, effective decision-making channels, as it should be at Handelsbanken,” says Michael Green.
