Johan Damne has today informed the board that he wishes to resign as CEO of Claesson & Anderzén AB and chairman of the board of CA Fastigheter AB.
”- Although it is news, I have known about this for a long time, it is still with great sadness that I communicate that Johan has decided to leave CA. Johan’s outstanding ability to keep the group unified and execute big and small matters has been decisive for our success. During Johan’s years, we have grown from being a mainly local real estate company, to one, if not international, then at least an investment company with several international investments in a number of different industries. Together with the entire Claesson family and our employees, we thank Johan for this time and wish him all the best in the future”, says Johan Claesson, chairman of Claesson & Anderzén AB, in a comment.
”- The years go by and my decision to step down has grown recently. Having the privilege of leading a group like CA for a very long time is demanding and requires energy, power and new ideas. The timing of various decisions is always difficult, but I feel that the CA Group today is very well equipped for the future. All of our portfolio companies today have very competent organizations in combination with strong balance sheets, which is why it feels good to hand over the reins. Together with Claesson family and all my colleagues, I have been able to participate in developing the CA Group from the real estate crisis of the 90s to today, which has been both fun, challenging and stimulating. The loss of the CA group, all colleagues and partners will be great, but now I am looking forward to new challenges”, says Johan Damne in a comment.”
Johan will remain in all his functions until his successor is appointed. The recruitment of successors has already begun and is hoped to be completed during the autumn.
