Volvo Proposes Board Slate With Boman Retained, Alahuhta Departing

AB Volvo's Election Committee has recommended the re-election of Chairman Pär Boman alongside nine other board members for the company's upcoming Annual General Meeting scheduled for April 8, 2026. The proposals represent continuity in leadership while marking a transition as incumbent board member Matti Alahuhta will step down following his tenure.

The Election Committee, comprised of representatives from four significant shareholders collectively holding approximately 16% of AB Volvo's shares and 39.8% of voting rights, developed the slate of candidates. This composition reflects the influence of major institutional investors in shaping the company's governance structure ahead of the shareholder meeting.

The proposed board configuration maintains stability in executive oversight while enabling the integration of new perspectives through Alahuhta's departure. Shareholders will formally consider the Election Committee's recommendations at the April 2026 gathering.
