The chief executive officer of Svenska Handelsbanken AB, Sweden’s third largest bank by market value, plans to retire upon turning 62 in October next year — three years earlier than envisaged.
The board says it has granted veteran banker Carina Akerstrom’s wish for a new contractual age of retirement of 62 from the current 65, according to a statement. Akerstrom hopes to focus on board roles after leaving Handelsbanken, she said.
