Appointment of Audit and Valuation Committee Chair
The Board is pleased to announce that Mr. Oliver Grundy has been
appointed as an independent non-executive Director of the Company
with effect from 12 March 2021. Following publication of the
Company's annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 December
2020, he will succeed Mr. Clive Peggram as Chair of the Audit and
Valuation Committee. Mr. Peggram will remain on the Board as an
independent non-executive Director. Given Mr. Kevin Ingram's
impending retirement, the Board determined that it was appropriate
to recruit a qualified accountant with knowledge of the financial
services sector and of credit.
Mr. Grundy was an audit partner of Deloitte, LLP for 28 years
until his retirement in November 2019. He worked both in London and
New York in various roles, including leading Deloitte's Banking
Group which comprised a team of 35 partners and 500 professionals.
Subsequently he became the audit and advisory partner to
significant funds. From 2017 to 2019 he was the Deloitte UK ethics
partner, with responsibility for all whistleblowing and conduct
matters as well as the firm's Public Interest Review Group.
During his Deloitte career he also had a number of roles at the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of England & Wales (ICAEW),
including being a Council member, a Disciplinary Committee Tribunal
Chairman and serving on the Practice, Risk & Regulation and the
Ethics Standards Committees. He is currently a member of the Red
Cross International Medical Fundraising Board.
Kevin Ingram, Chairman of the Company, said:
"We are delighted Oliver is joining the Board. He brings
valuable expertise from the many years he spent in charge of the
audits of numerous financial institutions and funds, as well as
deep knowledge of complex accounting and disclosure requirements.
He also has extensive experience of a wide range of governance
matters from his roles at Deloitte and the ICAEW. The Board is
grateful to Clive for his service as Chair of the Audit and
Valuations Committee and pleased that he will continue to make a
contribution as an independent non-executive director."
Mr. Grundy does not have any interest in the ordinary shares of
the Company.
There are no further details or disclosures required under
Listing Rule 9.6.13 in respect of Mr. Grundy.
