Fosun's Guo sees short-term impact from departure of CEO, other executive

Reuters

HONG KONG, March 29 (Reuters) - Fosun International Ltd , China's largest private conglomerate, expects the departure of two top executives to have a short-term impact on its business, Chairman Guo Guangchang said on Wednesday. The Shanghai-based conglomerate said late on Tuesday Chief Executive Liang Xinjun and Ding Guoqi, an executive director of Fosun and former chief financial officer, had resigned. Liang stepped down for health reasons and Ding to spend more time with his family, the company said in a securities filing. Fosun also reported a 28 percent increase in profit in 2016 to 10.3 billion yuan ($1.5 billion). The company named Wang Qunbin, one of its billionaire co-founders, as new CEO.
