Resolution 5 - Directors' remuneration report
In relation to the advisory vote on Resolution 5, the Board recognises the significant percentage of votes cast against this resolution.
Through engagement, we were aware that certain institutional shareholders were not supportive of specific aspects of the arrangements relating to the remuneration of the incoming CFO, as disclosed in the Directors' remuneration report.
These arrangements were developed following extensive discussion with the Remuneration Committee and its advisers, and are in accordance with the authority granted to the Remuneration Committee under the Remuneration Policy and the Deferred Share Plan approved by shareholders at the 2018 AGM. However, as previously announced, taking account of shareholder feedback and in agreement with the incoming CFO, we have applied performance conditions to the award.
Stephanie Bruce is an outstanding addition to our executive team at Standard Life Aberdeen, as our shareholders have acknowledged in their overwhelming endorsement of her appointment as CFO.
The reason we made this award, was to allow us to attract a talented senior executive from outside of the investment management industry who was previously remunerated on a comparatively consistent annual reward package, without the significant deferral arrangements we apply.
In the coming months, we will continue to engage with shareholders on the concerns raised on this resolution. In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, we will publish an update on that engagement within six months of the AGM.
We expect to seek shareholder approval for a new Directors' Remuneration Policy at our AGM in 2021 in line with the normal cycle for renewal.
Other matters
As previously announced, we confirm that Simon Troughton and Richard Mully did not seek re-election, and retired from the Board at the conclusion of the meeting. Following Simon Troughton's retirement, Martin Pike, the Company's longest-serving UK-based Non-Executive Director, has taken on the additional responsibilities of Senior Independent Director ('SID') with effect from 14 May 2019. It is intended that Martin will serve as SID until a successor is recruited.
Martin Pike and John Devine have been appointed members of the Nomination & Governance Committee with effect from 14 May 2019.
The total number of shares in issue at 6pm on Friday 10 May 2019 was 2,447,333,615 ordinary shares of 13(61) /(63) pence each.
Votes withheld are not a vote in law and have not been counted in the calculation of the votes for and against each resolution, the total votes validly cast or the calculation of the proportion of issued share capital voted.
Copies of all resolutions are available for inspection in the AGM Guide previously submitted to the UK Listing Authority's Document Viewing Facility, via the National Storage Mechanism at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm
