Item 2: Approve the Remuneration Report
The structure is aligned with long-term performance. However, up to 30% of the bonus depends on qualitative criteria and accelerated vesting is possible. Maximum incentive pay slightly exceeds guidelines. "Business scorecard" and ROTE determine a substantial percentage of both the STI and LTI. We recommend shareholders oppose the resolution.
Item 12: To re-elect as a director, Charlotte Jones
The director is not independent as she is expected to be appointed CFO in Summer 2019. She currently serves as a non-independent member of the Audit Committee and of the Remuneration Committee, which does not meet UK best practice or ECGS guidelines. We consider that it would have been appropriate for her to step down from these committees when she agreed to become an executive at the Company.
