Michael Miebach, Mastercard’s central item official, will succeed Banga as CEO.

Mastercard reported on Tuesday that CEO Ajay Banga will leave his present position and take over as the organization’s official director.

The move will be compelling Jan. 1, 2021. Banga will be taking over as director for Richard Haythornthwaite, who has served in that job since May 2006.

Michael Miebach, Mastercard’s central item official, will succeed Banga as CEO.

Miebach has “as a demonstrated reputation of building items and running organizations all inclusive,” Banga said in an announcement. “Over the span of Michael’s 10 years at Mastercard, he has been a key planner of our multi-rail procedure — including driving the procurement of Vocalink and the pending exchange with Nets — to address a more extensive arrangement of installment streams.”

Mastercard’s declaration came a day after the Visa organization cautioned the coronavirus flare-up could hit its 2020 income. The stock exchanged 2% bring down the premarket. “On the off chance that the effect is restricted to the primary quarter just, we expect that our 2020 yearly year-over-year net income development rate would be at the low finish of the low-teenagers extend,” Mastercard said.
