Upcoming change in the Executive Board of thyssenkrupp AG

After almost 28 years of working in various Top-management positions in the thyssenkrupp Group, most recently as a member of the Executive Board of thyssenkrupp AG since October 2019, Dr. Klaus Keysberg has decided not to stand for an extension of his contract, which runs until July 31, 2024, and thus until he reaches the age of 60 years of age of the current contract.

In this context, the Personnel Committee of the Supervisory Board of thyssenkrupp AG has started the usual search process in order to be able to propose a successor solution to the Supervisory Board as soon as possible.

Prof. Dr. Siegfried Russwurm, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of thyssenkrupp AG: "We respect the decision of Dr. Klaus Keysberg, even though we regret his leaving. I would already like to thank Dr. Klaus Keysberg for his many years of commitment to the company in a wide variety of functions. In particular, I would like to thank him for his commitment as a member of the Management Board of thyssenkrupp AG over the past four years. Klaus Keysberg has wisely and with great prudence closely accompanied the comprehensive change process of the company during this time and thus contributed significantly to the progress achieved so far in the transformation of thyssenkrupp."
