Changes at Solvay's top in 2012
As announced previously, Jean-Pierre Clamadieu, Deputy CEO of Solvay, will succeed Christian Jourquin upon the latter's retirement. In this context, Jean-Pierre Clamadieu will be proposed for appointment to the Board of Directors of Solvay at the annual shareholders meeting on May 8th, 2012.
Christian Jourquin's decision is motivated by the progress achieved in the integration of Rhodia into the Solvay group that was launched after the successful completion of Solvay's acquisition of Rhodia on September 16th, 2011. "I'm extremely pleased with the tempo of the integration and the fact that the assumptions considered at the time of the offer will be confirmed. The promises of success for the new Group are remarkable and I'm convinced that Jean-Pierre Clamadieu will make them come through in the best interest of all stakeholders", said Christian Jourquin.
