Changes to the Board of Directors of Ventus 2 VCT plc (the
"Company")
The Board announces today that it is making changes to its
composition, partly to address views expressed by shareholders at
the time of the AGM and partly due to the retirement of certain
directors. The Board believes the new arrangement provides an
excellent balance of director skills and experience and is part of
an ongoing plan to address the needs of shareholders in the run up
to the 2020 Continuation Vote.
The Board is pleased to announce the appointment of Chris Zeal
and Lloyd Chamberlain as non-executive directors of the Company
with effect from 1(st) October 2019.
Chris has had a career as a financial adviser in the City
spanning over 30 years, during which time he has provided advice to
boardrooms of both large and small companies across a wide range of
sectors, including some 20 FTSE 100 companies. Most recently he was
Managing Director at Jefferies Hoare Govett (a division of
Jefferies Inc.) specialising in corporate broking and investment
banking. Prior to this, he held a similar role at Citigroup.
Originally, he trained and qualified as a Chartered Accountant with
KPMG.
Lloyd's career in finance and business has spanned more than 20
years; most recently as the founder and managing partner of
Praxient Capital LLP, an FCA and SEC regulated investment manager.
He was the portfolio manager for the Panther Fund strategy
(2007-2015) using detailed fundamental research to invest across
both equity and debt. Previously, Lloyd was a partner and portfolio
manager at Pendragon Capital LLP, managing the Pendragon Excalibur
Fund (2003-5). Lloyd has raised more than $500m from investors,
delivering significant market outperformance. He gained a
first-class degree in architecture from Cambridge before working as
a management consultant at Bain & Company.
Lloyd holds 774,695 ordinary shares and 323,875 "C" shares in
Ventus 2 VCT plc.
Lloyd also holds 15,000 ordinary shares and 196,513 "C" shares
in Ventus VCT plc.
Chris holds 50,000 ordinary shares in Ventus VCT plc.
Immediately following these appointments, the Board will
comprise four directors, Alan Moore, Jane Tozer, Chris Zeal and
Lloyd Chamberlain.
Alan Moore intends to step down as Chairman and Director in the
next few months during which period he will prepare to hand over
the Chair to Lloyd Chamberlain. A further announcement will confirm
this date.
Chris and Lloyd have been non-executive directors of Ventus VCT
plc since 1(st) July 2018 and 14(th) June 2019 respectively, but
both have resigned from its board with effect from 1(st) October
2019.
