Andrew Liveris is the chairman of the board of directors, and Edward Breen is the CEO. The merger has been reported to be worth an estimated $130 billion. In March 2018, it was announced that Jeff Fettig will become executive chairman of DowDuPont on July 1, 2018, and Jim Fitterling will become CEO of Dow Chemical on April 1, 2018.
On December 11, 2015, DuPont announced a merger with Dow Chemical Company, in an all-stock transaction. The combined company, DowDuPont, will have an estimated value of $130 billion, being equally held by both companies’ shareholders, while also maintaining its two headquarters. The merger of the two largest U.S. chemical companies closed on August 31, 2017. The merger formed the world's largest chemical company in terms of sales. Dow DuPont is dual headquartered in Midland, Michigan and Wilmington, Delaware.
Both companies' boards of directors decided that following the merger, DowDuPont would pursue a separation into three independent, publicly-traded companies: an agriculture, a materials science, and a specialty products company.
