ArcelorMittal, the world's largest steelmaker, today said it has appointed Daniel Fairclough as its new head of investor relations.
"Daniel will succeed Julien Onillon, who is moving to become CFO of ArcelorMittal's stainless steel business segment," the Luxembourg-headquartered company said in an e-mailed statement.
Daniel has spent a decade in senior equity research roles --initially at Merrill Lynch, where he was co-head of Mining and Steel Research and later at ICAP Equities--and has in depth knowledge of the Metals & Mining industry, the company said.
"I'm very pleased to be joining ArcelorMittal at this time. During my years in equity research, I followed the company's extraordinary growth closely and admired its leadership. I now look forward to helping other analysts and investors to understand its exciting growth strategy and ambitions in my new role," Daniel said.
Daniel graduated from the University of Newcastle Upon Tyne with an honours degree in Accounting and Financial Analysis.
ArcelorMittal is the world's leading steel company with an annual steel production of over 70 million tonnes and operations in over 60 countries.
