Keeping it in the Family: Maersk Founder's Scion Steps Aboard

At its recent general meeting of AP Moller-Maersk, Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller's grandson Robert Maersk Uggla was elected to the board of the company, which will ensure the family's active ownership and continuity in the company, according to a report by Børsen with Maritime Denmark. Citing Robert Maersk Uggla the report indicates that he thinks it means a lot to the family. They wished to remain as an active owner of A. P. Moller-Maersk and he considered that that is what his grandfather would have wanted and his mother wants the same. Apparently he has worked in the company for 10 years.
