London - The world's largest diamond miner De Beers has
appointed Anglo American's head of corporate finance, Gareth Mostyn, as its new
chief financial officer.
Global miner Anglo American [JSE:AGL] agreed last November
to take control of De Beers, increasing its 45% stake in the unlisted producer
by buying out the Oppenheimer family in a deal set to be completed this year.
Mostyn, who has worked on a number of Anglo’s major transactions and its overall financial strategy, is due to begin his new role on February 1. He will also be on the board of De Beers.
