MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The company Google Inc. decided to introduce a new operating structure and create a new public holding company named Alphabet Inc., company's current CEO Larry Page said.

"Our company is operating well today, but we think we can make it cleaner and more accountable. So we are creating a new company, called Alphabet,” Google Inc. co-founder Page post to the official Google blog on Monday.

Google Inc.'s shares will automatically convert into shares of new "collection of companies," whose largest company will be Google.

"Alphabet Inc. will replace Google Inc. as the publicly-traded entity and all shares of Google will automatically convert into the same number of shares of Alphabet, with all of the same rights. Google will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alphabet," Page said.
