Result of General Meeting and renewal of Share Issuance Authority
The Board of the Company is pleased to announce that, at the General Meeting of the Company held today, both Resolutions detailed below seeking the authority to renew the Company's authorities to issue further Shares on a non pre-emptive basis were duly passed by Shareholders on a poll.
Christopher Casey, Chairman of CQS Natural Resources Growth and Income PLC, commented:
"We believe the result of today's meeting reflects shareholder confidence in the Company. The resolutions passed will allow the Board to continue to issue shares at a premium to NAV and grow the size of the Company, which we expect, in turn, should further enhance liquidity and lower the ongoing charges ratio. We believe these initiatives will continue to increase the Company's attractiveness to investors."
