Abrdn CFO Jason Windsor set to replace Stephen Bird as CEO

Abrdn CFO Jason Windsor will replace Stephen Bird as CEO.

Windsor has been interim boss since Bird stepped down in May after four tumultuous years at the helm that included overseeing a controversial rebrand that included a name change from Standard Life Aberdeen to the vowel-less ‘abrdn’ in 2021.

Investors will be hoping that when its half-year results are released today, Windsor can turn its fortunes around after its profits were hit by customer withdrawals.

Abdrn said yesterday: “No decision has been made on the appointment of a new CEO. When the board of directors makes a decision, we will inform the market.”

Prior to Abrdn, Windsor was finance director of housebuilder Persimmon.

Shares fell 2.3 percent, or 3.7 pence, to 160.5 pence.
