Switzerland: Eric Olsen, the chief executive officer of LafargeHolcim, has denied that his departure from the group is connected to payments to armed groups in Syria. Olsen announced his resignation following a review into a conduct of a cement plant in Syria, according to the Associated Press. However, he was found not responsible or even aware of the misconduct. Olsen told reporters at the publication of the group’s first quarter financial results that his decision to leave was not related to Syria but he did acknowledge ‘tensions’ at the company. LafargeHolcim hopes to have recruited a replacement for Olsen by the end of 2017.
