Lévy Staying Put at Publicis

This week, Publicis Groupe shareholders voted to raise the age limit for management board members from 70 to 75. This means that Maurice Lévy, the Groupe’s 69-year-old chairman and CEO, can stay on for another five years while a successor is selected.

Publicis firms include MSLGroup as well as advertising giants Saatchi & Saatchi and Leo Burnett.

Jean-Yves Naouri had been appointed executive chairman of Publicis Worldwide, presumably to take Lévy’s place at the top when the time came.
