Mohamed Ali Al Dhaheri, currently deputy CEO of the council, will succeed Al Suwaidi as CEO.

“On behalf of the Mubadala board of directors, I would like to thank Eissa for his tenure as CEO of the council. He has served the council, and the Mubadala Group, with great distinction. He has had a long and successful career over four decades as one of Abu Dhabi’s most respected investment professionals, and I wish him the best in his retirement,” Khaldoon Al Mubarak, managing director and group CEO of Mubadala, said.
