Directorate Change
Prudential plc ("Prudential") announces changes to the composition
of its Board.
As part of our progress towards the demerger of M&GPrudential,
John Foley, Chief Executive of M&GPrudential, Nic Nicandrou,
Chief Executive of Prudential Corporation Asia, and Michael Falcon,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the North American Business
Unit, will step down as members of Prudential's Board at the end of
the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on 16 May 2019. They will
remain in their executive roles and as members of the Group
Executive Committee.
Lord Turner of Ecchinswell has decided to retire from the Board at
the end of the AGM. He joined the Board as a Non-Executive Director
and member of the Risk Committee in September 2015, and became a
member of the Audit Committee in May 2017.
Paul Manduca, Chairman of Prudential, said: "We have reviewed the
composition of the Board in the context of the demerger of
M&GPrudential, towards which we continue to make good
progress.
"John Foley will naturally stand down from the Board as part of
M&GPrudential's transition to an independent business. Given
Prudential's changed shape following the demerger, we have decided
that the roles of Chief Executive of Prudential Corporation Asia
and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the North American
Business Unit will no longer be positions on the
Board.
"I would like to take the opportunity to thank John Foley, Nic
Nicandrou and Michael Falcon for their service to the Board. They
will continue to lead their respective Business Units, work closely
with the Board and remain members of the Group Executive
Committee.
"In advance of his retirement in May 2019, I would also like to
thank Lord Turner for his service. His experience has been of great
value to the Board and the Risk and Audit committees."
