Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, former Group Chairman and CEO of DP World, speaks during the 2023 Concordia Annual Summit on September 19, 2023 in New York City. Without naming bin Sulayem, Dubai’s Government Media Office (GMO) announced that DP World had appointed a new chairman and group CEO, positions previously held by bin Sulayem. DP World confirmed the new appointments to CNN. The management shuffle comes after international firms began severing links with DP World in the wake of the latest release of the Epstein files. DP World declined to comment on bin Sulayem’s relationship with Epstein when contacted by CNN before his removal.
