Board changes following 2011 AGM

Man Group plc announces that Dugald Eadie, who has served as a non-executive director for nine years, will be retiring from the Board at the Annual General Meeting on 7 July 2011.  Dugald has made a substantial contribution to the Board and the business through successive periods of change and we give him our very best wishes for the future. 

In addition, as part of the regular refreshing of Board roles, Alison Carnwath, who has been Senior Independent Director since 2009, will step down from that role, while remaining on the Board, following the Annual General Meeting.   Alison will be succeeded by Patrick O'Sullivan who has served as a non-executive director for four years and is Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee.
