Heather Remley becomes the company's CEO and President, announcing new features in BASF's Refinity, a cloud-based platform. Meanwhile, BASF's (BASFY) stock increased by 10.9% raising the question of future potential rise in value. However, its shares indicated a 3% drop due to impairments affecting earnings.
Additionally, the company's strategic moves include investing in a new alcoholates plant and launching the first reduced carbon footprint product whilst also expanding the portfolio with sustainable personal care solutions.
