German stock institute gets new boss

FRANKFURT (dpa-AFX) – The German Stock Institute (DAI) is getting a new boss: Henriette Peucker is to take over from Christine Bortenlänger in the middle of the year, as the Frankfurt institution announced on Monday. In order to ensure a smooth transition, Peucker, who was deputy managing director of the Association of German Banks (BdB) until mid-2023, will start working for the stock institute on May 1st.

After almost twelve years in office, Bortenlänger has decided not to seek another term as executive director of the German Stock Institute. When her contract expires on June 30, 2024, she will leave the DAI. Bortenlänger, who was previously head of the Munich Stock Exchange, took up the post in Frankfurt on September 1, 2012.

The core task of the German Stock Institute is lobbying for shares. The institution has represented the interests of listed companies and other capital market players since 1953./ben/DP/jha
