Oberthur Card Systems SA of Nanterre, France, Europe's fourth-largest maker of smart cards, said its chief executive, Pierre Barberis, has resigned for personal reasons.
Mr. Barberis, who became CEO in May 2002, will remain with the company and move to Asia, Oberthur said.
The company said it has found a successor, who will take the top job in January, but it did not provide a name.
Oberthur was No. 31 last year on American Banker's annual FinTech 100 list of banking technology vendors.
