After stepping down as Chair of the BOSC, Birger Steen will continue as an ordinary member of the committee. Kjersti Wiklund has been a member of the BOSC since 24 March 2022.
The new employee representative on the Board of Directors, Kasper Skovgaard Pedersen, has worked at Nordea for nearly 14 years, most recently as a credit analyst. Currently he holds the position of a union board member in Finansforbundet in Nordea.
