Trafigura Prepares for CEO Handover to Gas Boss Richard Holtum.

Trafigura Group, a commodity trading giant, is preparing for a leadership handover to Richard Holtum, the current head of gas, power, and renewables. Holtum, a former British army captain, has been meeting with the heads of different commodities at Trafigura to discuss their trading books as he prepares to take on the role of CEO.

Holtum's appointment follows allegations of corruption within the company, and he will step into his new role as the company faces a trial in Switzerland. [Extracted from the article]
