Bengtsson, who took over as Group CEO of Veidekke ASA on 1 September. Charlotta

"Veidekke has great market potential in Sweden. Mats Nyström's mission is first

of Veidekke Sweden was effective 4 September.

"I look forward to leading Veidekke's Swedish business through profitable growth
and a strong emphasis on leadership, culture and values. We must remain
attractive as an employer and as a partner to our customers. Going forward, I
will focus on realising and further developing current strategies, in close
collaboration with my colleagues," says Mats Nyström.

Effective 9 September, Charlotta Nilsén will assume leadership of Veidekke
Sweden's Residential Buildings business area, which primarily builds residential
units, but also executes extensive commercial projects in South and West Sweden.
Charlotta Nilsén joined Veidekke in 2014 and currently heads up Veidekke
Property Development Sweden's region Riks.

"Veidekke's broad operations and collaborative working methods provide a unique
capacity for addressing highly complex assignments and customer needs. If we
apply our overall capabilities, we have tremendous competitive potential.
Through sixteen years in the construction industry and eight years in property
development, I have gained insight into the broader scale of building for
society, and I am very much looking forward to further developing the business
area, in collaboration with good colleagues," says Charlotta Nilsén.
