Board changes
Polymetal announces changes in its Board of Directors.
Christine Coignard (Independent Non-Executive Director) and Jean-Pascal
Duvieusart (Non-Executive Director) have notified the Company that they will
not be standing for re-election at the upcoming AGM. Andrea Abt has been
appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director.
Ms Coignard commented: "At the time of the AGM, I will have served six years
on Polymetal's Board: as Senior Independent Director; Chair of the
Remuneration Committee; a member of both the Audit and Risk Committee and
the Nomination Committee. These have been exciting times during which, and
on all strategic, operational, financial and ESG fronts, Polymetal has
become a world leader in the precious metals sector. It has been an honour
to have contributed to this in my role as a Director. As the Company embarks
on the next phase of its development and fine tunes its corporate culture
including diversity across all levels of the organisation, I feel it is time
for me to move on and make room for new sets of skills on the Board. I thank
all our shareholders for their strong and consistent support over these
years. I also thank all my colleagues throughout the organisation for our
efforts as a team and for the exceptional times we had the chance to work
together, especially at the production units."
Mr Duvieusart was appointed as the Executive Director and CEO of Home Credit
N.V. in January 2020 and decided not to hold the directorship position in
Polymetal concurrently.
Ian Cockerill, Board Chair, commented: "I am thankful to Christine and
Jean-Pascal for their contribution to the Company's success. As the Chair of
the Remuneration Committee, Christine has been pivotal in shaping
Polymetal's governance and remuneration practices. Congratulations to
Jean-Pascal on his new role and I appreciate that it is no longer possible
to continue as a non-executive Director. I am also glad to welcome Andrea,
an inspired professional with diverse and successful executive and
directorship track record. She brings crucial skills for Polymetal of supply
chain management and successful implementation of IT transformation."
Andrea Abt
Ms Abt has almost 30 years of experience in international management and
leadership roles in a wide variety of challenging environments in the
Daimler Benz and Siemens groups: building organisations, consolidating,
turning them around in the areas of transportation (rail and aerospace),
