Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Morten Hübbe has informed the Supervisory Boards of Tryg A/S and Tryg Forsikring A/S that he step down after 20 years on Tryg's Executive Board. Morten Hübbe became part of Tryg at the age of 30 and has since then had a successful career in the company; he held the position as Group CFO for 8 years until he was appointed Group CEO in 2011.

After having led the Company for 12 years, Morten Hübbe now step down and pursue a career at a non- executive level, and have more time for family and other interests. To succeed Morten Hübbe (51), the Supervisory Boards of Tryg A/S and Tryg Forsikring A/S have appointed Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) Johan Kirstein Brammer (46) as new Group CEO as of 1 June 2023. During his tenure on Tryg's Executive Board, Morten Hübbe has, on several occasions, mentioned publicly that he didn't have the ambition to remain in an executive role until typical retirement age.

Having held executive positions from a very young age, he has had an aspiration to step back as an operational leader much closer to the age of 50 rather than the more usual age around 60. This has given Tryg's Supervisory Board strong prerequisites for the work with succession planning.

Since his appointment to the Executive Board in 2018, Johan Kirstein Brammer's potential to one day lead the Company has been evident.
