Maersk CEO details future strategy

Following Maersk’s restructuring in September when it was split into separate segments, Group CEO Søren Skou has outlined plans for a core focus on transport and logistics.

Speaking at the conglomerate’s “capital markets day”, he stated that Maersk intends to separate its energy units out of A.P. Møller – Mærsk A/S.

Skou said: “When we set out the ambition of becoming a pure play container logistics, ports and container shipping company I want to emphasise that that is not an ambition to become a smaller company.”
