On Wednesday, the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise's Nomination Committee announced that they are proposing that the AGM elect Jacob Wallenberg as the new chairman in May.


- Jacob Wallenberg has long made significant contributions to Swedish entrepreneurship.

I am pleased that he is prepared to continue to do so in the proposed role as chairman of the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise, writes the chairman of the nomination committee, Staffan Lindquist, in a press release.

Jacob Wallenberg is, among other things, chairman of Ericsson and has not been granted discharge after Assignment review's revelation that money from the company is suspected of having landed with the terrorist group IS.
