Personalwechsel: Hugo Boss hat einen neuen Aufsichtsratschef

Hugo Boss has appointed a new member to its supervisory board, Michael Murray, who is the chief of the acquisition company working on the takeover of Boss, Frasers Group. Murray joined the board in May 2025 and was chosen as the new chairman by the supervisory board. This comes after a dispute between the outgoing chairman, Stephan Sturm, and Frasers Group, as Sturm announced his intention to resign from his position in the board following the failed takeover attempt by the British company.

Frasers Group had been trying to gain control over Hugo Boss in recent months, holding nearly 48 percent of the company. The relationship between the major shareholder and the management had been tense for some time, with Frasers Group removing Sturm from his position in December due to disagreements, primarily surrounding dividend payments.
