BASF CEO Markus Kamieth on Q1 financial results

Volatility tests more than forecasts. It tests resilience. Q1 showed how true that is. Despite a challenging environment, BASF delivered stable earnings, grew volumes and saw strong momentum in China. This doesn't happen by chance. At BASF, resilience is rooted in our size, our portfolio and our setup: a local-for-local approach, creating value from commodities to specialties. That is what keeps our performance on track. Markus Kamieth will speak at our Annual Shareholders’ Meeting about why our "Winning Ways" strategy is the right fit for a world changing fast and fundamentally.
