AP Moller-Maersk Group CEO
Nils Andersen has been admitted to hospital in Switzerland for an emergency
heart valve replacement while the chief executive of his biggest unit, Maersk
Line, is clearing his desk to go for new job in banking.
Said a Maersk statement:
"During a vacation in Switzerland his condition deteriorated acutely, and
has undergone surgery, which comprised replacement of a cardiac valve. Doctors
are expecting a full recovery."
At the end of next week,
Maersk Line CEO Eivind Kolding steps down to join Danske Bank to be replaced by
Soren Skou, the CEO of Maersk Tankers.
"I am very sorry that
Nils S Andersen is going through this course of illness, but I am pleased that
he quickly received the right, skilled treatment which coupled with the fact
that he is in good shape means that we can soon welcome him back," says
Maersk Group chairman Michael Pram Rasmussen.
"The executive board
will run AP Moller-Maersk Group during Nils Andersen's absence," said Mr
Rasmussen.
