Ramasia's tenure with Bonitas ends

Ramasia was appointed as principal executive officer in early 2012, when the scheme was placed under curatorship. "Under his leadership, the implementation of good corporate governance principles ensured the scheme grew and evolved to be a stronger contender in the healthcare industry," a statement from Bonitas said.

A new principal executive officer is still to be decided. The management and trustees of the scheme will fulfil the role until such time as a new principal executive officer is appointed. “The scheme is committed to acting in the best interests of our members at all times. We appreciate the input and value Ramasia added during his tenure and wish him well in his future endeavours,” the Bonitas board said.
