Volkswagen Group to rearrange into four holding companies
Several reports have been surfacing on the internet that the Volkswagen Group will be regrouped into four holding companies, running three each of the 12 brands in the group. The decentralization system approach comes after the resignation of former VW Chairman Ferdinand Piech, who followed a centralized management structure. The new structure is expected to be more efficient and quick in decision making.
