Donald Trump has threatened the EU with a 50 percent tariff starting June 1, and a former McKinsey partner has been convicted in an opioid scandal.

In other news, Malou Aamund has been nominated as chairman of Matas’ board. She is set to take over the position after Matas’ general meeting on June 16, following Lars Vinge Frederiksen’s decision to step down.

The American president, Donald Trump, is also threatening Apple with a 25 percent tariff on iPhones, according to the Financial Times, unless Apple moves their production of the popular phones to the USA. Tim Cook said earlier this month that Indian factories would supply “the majority” of the iPhones sold in the US in the coming months, as Apple tries to avoid the tariffs on Chinese-made goods that Trump has introduced as part of his trade war.

The 55-year-old Malou Aamund is a prominent figure in the Danish IT world, with previous top positions at IBM, Microsoft, and Google. Currently, she holds board positions in companies such as KIRKBI, the LEGO family’s investment company.

A former partner in the consulting giant McKinsey, Martin Elling, will serve six months in prison for deleting evidence related to the opioid crisis in the United States. The crisis, which has resulted in over a million deaths, involved McKinsey advising a company on how to aggressively promote the sale of Oxycontin to doctors.

Matas has delivered solid annual accounts following acquisitions in Sweden, with growth in both top and bottom lines. Bankrupt Northvolt is closing its factory in a month, laying off 900 employees. Malou Aamund advises ambitious young people to prioritize being human alongside performing well.
