New director of information at SSAB

On 1 September 2007, Helena Stålnert will assume the position of new director of
information at SSAB. After three years in the position, Ulrika Ekström is moving
to the consultancy firm, Hill & Knowlton.

Helena Stålnert has worked at Saab as communications director since June 2005
and, in that position, has had overall responsibility for all external and
internal communications. Prior thereto, among other things she has been head of
the Aktuellt news programme, programme host, and foreign correspondent at the
Swedish public service broadcaster, SVT. She has also been a reporter/ head of
news at both Veckans Affärer and SvD.
- I am pleased that Helena has chosen to begin at SSAB and believe that, with
her long experience in the information area, she will be able to make a
significant contribution. My ambition is to merge Investor Relations and Media
Relations at the same time as the entire company is undergoing a phase of
coordination. I would also like to that Ulrika for her fine work and wish her
every success in her new position, says Olof Faxander, President and CEO of
SSAB.
