Benjamin leaves CSN command; Schvartsman is the new CEO

Benjamin Steinbruch is stepping down as CEO of CSN after two decades, with Fábio Schvartsman taking over the role. Steinbruch will assume the position of chairman of the board, a role he previously held for 28 years. Schvartsman, a former CEO of Vale and Klabin, was chosen for the position about four months ago, according to Steinbruch.

The change comes as CSN focuses on reducing its debt, which reached 3.5x EBITDA in the second quarter, and selling assets, including potentially CSN Cimentos, which could be valued at around R$ 12 billion.
