Leonteq reshapes board and delays chair handover amid Raiffeisen stake sale

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Leonteq AG ( (CH:LEON) ) has issued an update.

Leonteq AG has proposed the election of Barbara Heller and Jürg Steiger as new independent members of its Board of Directors at the ordinary Annual General Meeting on 1 April 2026, while current director Susana Gomez Smith will not stand for re-election. Heller is set to chair the Audit and Risk Committee, reinforcing Leonteq’s governance and risk oversight following her predecessor’s seven-year tenure.

In a move to safeguard corporate governance amid ownership changes, Felix Oegerli has withdrawn his candidacy for Chairman until completion of the acquisition of a 22.7% stake in Leonteq by a shareholder group from Raiffeisen. Incumbent Chairman Christopher Chambers and Vice Chairman Philippe Weber will remain in their roles for a transitional period, with an extraordinary General Meeting planned later this year to elect a new Chairman, signalling a managed leadership transition during the strategic share transaction.

The most recent analyst rating on (CH:LEON) stock is a Hold with a CHF13.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Leonteq AG stock, see the CH:LEON Stock Forecast page.
