He hands over the reins to Scott, who is the natural choice to lead North America. I would like to warmly thank Carlo for his 26 years of committed service during which he has spearheaded significant developments across our regions, most recently having taken the helm of EMEA post-COVID and navigating a challenging phase of the agriculture cycle. In Stefano, we have an experienced leader who will ensure a smooth transition until Markus’s arrival on March 1. We are excited to welcome Markus to the CNH team and confident that his extensive industrial and commercial experience will drive significant progress across the EMEA region."
