DNB's Election Committee has recommended Eimund Nygaard as new Chair of the Board of Directors of DNB Bank ASA. The election of the Chair of the Board will take place at the Annual General Meeting on 21 April this year.  

The Chair of the Election Committee, Camilla Grieg, refers to Nygaard's extensive experience from the Norwegian business sector and Norwegian society.  

"Nygaard has led the Lyse group through change and growth for 27 years and has contributed to developing Lyse from a local power producer to a large national player in the energy and telecom sector. In addition, Nygaard has experience from Board positions in Lyse as well as in other companies. It is the assessment of the Election Committee that Nygaard's leadership skills and extensive experience as CEO of a complex, regulated company provide a strong basis for contributing to the further development of the DNB Group. The Election Committee is very pleased that Eimund Nygaard is willing to take up the position of Chair of the Board of DNB."  

"I greatly appreciate the vote of confidence from the Election Committee and look forward to taking up the position of Chair of the Board. DNB plays a crucial role for the Norwegian and Nordic economy, and supports people and businesses in every phase of life. In addition, DNB is an important part of the Norwegian community, and almost half of its profits are returned to society. I look forward to getting to know the organisation better," says Nygaard.  

The current Chair of the Board, Olaug Svarva, will step down as Chair at the Annual General Meeting in April, after eight years in the position.  

"It has been a privilege to lead the Board of DNB through an exciting period with great changes in the surrounding world. DNB is now one of Europe's best capitalised banks and has strengthened its position in the Nordic region. DNB has an incredibly highly skilled organisation, and I have no doubt that Eimund Nygaard will carry on and strengthen DNB's social mission," states Svarva.
