“With his extensive experience gained in the industrial and automotive sectors, his track record in our sister companies and his contributions during the current integration phase Heiko Eber will accompany the next phase of our transformation as a leading Motion Technology Company. The strong foundation of Schaeffler’s transparent capital markets communications will serve as a good fundament for building a compelling equity story of Schaeffler New,” said Claus Bauer, CFO of Schaeffler AG.
