Update on Board membership and change in corporate structure
13 December 2012
The Chairman of Henderson Group plc (the Company), Rupert
Pennant-Rea, will stand down from the board at the Annual General
Meeting in May 2013, when he will have been a director for almost
nine years. Mr Pennant-Rea said: "The Company has come a long way
since it demerged from AMP and relisted, and has made two
successful acquisitions in recent years. I am leaving the Company
and the Board in good shape."
The Board expresses its gratitude for his service to the Company
and its shareholders and the Board and staff at Henderson Group
wish Mr Pennant-Rea every success for his future endeavours. Mr
Pennant-Rea is currently the Chairman of The Economist Group. He is
also a director of Go-Ahead Group plc, Gold Fields Limited (South
Africa) and Hochschild Mining plc. He has today been appointed to
the Royal London Group board as a non-executive director and
Chairman designate. A comprehensive search for his successor is
underway.
In addition, the Company today announces a change in its tax
residency from the Republic of Ireland to the UK ('change of
residency') by means of a corporate restructuring. The UK
government's Controlled Foreign Company reform means the Group's
tax position and effective tax rate are unaffected by now having a
UK resident parent company. This change of residency is effective
immediately.
Furthermore, as all strategic decision making will now reside in
the UK, the Board has decided to reduce the number of Executive
Directors on the Board and therefore David Jacob and James Darkins
have stepped down with effect from 12 December 2012.
The Group also announces today the appointment of Ms Jacqui
Irvine as Company Secretary with effect from 12 December 2012
replacing Ms Fionnuala Hanrahan.
