The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that of the current members of the Board of Directors -Jorma Eloranta, Elisabeth Fleuriot, Hock Goh, Mikko Helander, Christiane Kuehne, Antti Mäkinen, Richard Nilsson and Hans Stråberg be re-elected members of the Board of Directors until the end of the following AGM and that Håkan Buskhe be elected new member of the Board of Directors for the same term of office.

The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that Jorma Eloranta be elected Chairman and Hans Stråberg be elected Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Göran Sandberg has announced that he is not available for re-election to the Board of Directors.

"Göran Sandberg has during his tenure since 2017 been a valuable member of the Stora Enso Board of Directors. Göran has since his election acted as member of the Sustainability and Ethics Committee and contributed to its work. I would like to thank Göran warmly for all his valuable work for Stora Enso," says Jorma Eloranta, Stora Enso's Board Chair and member of the Shareholders' Nomination Board.
