As of 1 October 2019, David Knibbe (48) is appointed as CEO of NN Group. He will succeed current CEO Lard Friese, who took the position of CEO at competitor Aegon.
Knibbe's appointment did not come as a surprise. He was always in the top of the lists of talents to watch and was considered Lard Friese's crown prince at NN Group. Being born in Tunis to parents who were both active in providing development aid, he always takes societal interests into account in his decisions. 'David has an eye for societal matters and makes broad considerations,' says Richard Weurding of Verbond van Verzekers. 'His appointment as CEO of NN Group is a deserved reward for his achievements.'
