Dasa CEO Quits

Diagnosticos da America’s CEO Marcelo Moreira is leaving the medical testing service provider, effective immediately. He is replaced on an interim basis by Luiz Rosenfeld, formerly Dasa’s medical vice president. Itau’s research division sees the change as neutral, and finds that Moreira believes he has completed his project at the company and that it is ready to act on the growth plan he laid out. “While we would prefer to see Moreira stay through a longer transitioning process, we see few chances for disruption of Dasa’s strategic initiatives, which include acquisitions, organic growth and the integration of subsidiaries,” it says. Dasa has grown through acquisitions, and placed $250m in 2018 bonds in May.
