Ageon reshuffles leadership as regional CEO and board member retires
Netherland-based insurance group Aegon has announced key changes to its management as its chief executive officer (CEO) Central & Eastern Europe and board member Gábor Kepecs is set to retire early next year.
Kepecs became the CEO of Central & Eastern Europe in 2009 and joined Ageon's management board in 2007. Prior to that, he was the CEO of Aegon Hungary from 1992 until 2009.
January 2017 onwards, Marco Keim will take the responsibility of Aegon's activities in continental Europe and join its board.
Keim is currently the CEO of Aegon the Netherlands. Maarten Edixhoven has been promoted to succeed Keim and lead Ageon’s Dutch business.
Alex Wynaendts, Aegon’s CEO, said: "I would like to thank Gábor Kepecs for his 30 years of dedication to our customers and the company.
"Under his leadership, Aegon successfully expanded its activities across Central & Eastern Europe. Today our businesses in this region have achieved leadership positions in their key markets and provide a material contribution to the overall group.”
Wynaendts added: “Maarten Edixhoven joined Aegon over two years ago and under his management we have further strengthened our broad pension activities in the Netherlands. I am therefore very pleased that Maarten will now lead our Dutch business.
“Marco's experience in driving innovation and sharing best practices within our various businesses will create significant synergies in the region and will benefit our customers. I look forward to continuing to work with Marco in his expanded role."
