Alexander Muhm, head of SBB Cargo, is being considered as a potential successor to Vincent Ducrot as CEO of Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). Muhm, an Austrian-born architect, has been with SBB for 17 years and has recently reported positive financial results for the cargo division. Despite having a Swiss passport and identifying as a "proud Solothurner", some industry insiders have raised concerns about his Austrian background.
Other candidates for the CEO position include Renato Fasciati, head of RhB, Linus Looser, SBB's infrastructure head, and Franz Steiger, SBB's finance chief.
