(Reuters) – French IT company Atos said on Tuesday that Philippe Salle will become its new chairman with immediate effect while also taking over as chief executive from February.
Salle, who according to the company intends to participate in the ailing form’s restructuring by investing at least 9 million euros ($9.80 million) himself, replaces former Unicredit top banker Jean-Pierre Mustier.
Mustier will act as CEO until January 31, Atos said to ensure “an orderly, constructive and effective transition”.
