PARIS (Reuters) – Airbus is drawing up a stop-gap succession for the role of chief financial officer after struggling to appoint a permanent successor for Dominik Asam, who joins German software group SAP in under three weeks, industry sources said.
Barring a rapid breakthrough, the world’s largest planemaker may appoint an interim CFO after Asam steps down at the end of the month as previously announced, having presented his last Airbus results on Feb 16, they said. No decision has been taken.
Airbus declined to comment on management appointments.
