Hoist Finance announces changes to Executive Management

Hoist Finance is making changes in the roles of the Executive Management Team.

Fabien Klecha will assume the role as Chief Investment Officer. Fabien Klecha has been with Hoist Finance since 2012 and is currently Head of Secured Assets and is a member of the Executive Management Team. He has previously held the positions as Investment Manager as well as Country Manager for France. Fabien Klecha succeeds Stephan Ohlmeyer who is leaving Hoist.

Jelle Dekkers, who serves as Chief Contact Center Operations Officer, will include responsibility for Data & Analytics and Digital in his role. Moving these functions closer to local operations will lead to business synergies and lower costs. Jarkko Heinonen, currently Chief Digital Officer, has decided to leave Hoist Finance.

"These changes will support our journey towards improved productivity and growth. Fabien Klecha has long experience and broad knowledge of Hoist's core areas. His overall understanding of the entire business will be a valuable contribution to the future investment strategy. Data & Analytics and Digital are central parts of our strategy and the every-day customer interaction. It is a natural step to move these functions closer to the daily operations. I would also like to thank Stephan Ohlmeyer and Jarkko Heinonen for their valuable work in Hoist Finance", says Per Anders Fasth, CEO.

The changes take immediate effect.
