Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem resigned as chair and chief executive of DP World, the owner of P&O Ferries, following the release of messages between him and Jeffrey Epstein. The messages, disclosed by the US Department of Justice, contained details of inappropriate behavior. DP World's partners, including La Caisse and British International Investment (BII), initially paused future deals with the company, but BII has since resumed investment. Sulayem had led DP World's transformation into a major global logistics company with holdings including six Canadian ports and the London Gateway. DP World faced criticism in 2022 after P&O Ferries fired 800 employees. Essa Kazim has been named as the chair and Yuvraj Narayan as the chief executive.
