DIRECTORATE CHANGE
 
Prudential plc ("Prudential") today announces that Pierre-Olivier Bouée is to step down as Group Chief Risk Officer and a member of the Board of Prudential plc. A replacement for Mr Bouée will be announced in due course. Mr Bouée joined Prudential in 2008 and served in a variety of Group leadership roles before being appointed Chief Risk Officer in 2013. Mr Bouée will step down from the Board on 31 May 2015, but will continue as Chief Risk Officer until 30 June 2015 to assist with the transition process.
 
Paul Manduca, Chairman, said: "I would like to thank Pierre-Olivier for his service to this Group over the past seven years. As Chief Risk Officer, he has further strengthened the Group's ability to manage the risks and meet the challenges of an uncertain global environment and has also been a valued Board colleague. While the Board will be disappointed to see him leave, we respect his desire to pursue a fresh challenge. The Board has a strong focus on succession planning and a process has already begun."
 
Pierre-Olivier Bouée said: "It has been a privilege to work at Prudential since 2008, during which time the Group has grown profitably to become one of the world's leading financial services businesses, while working within a balanced, prudent risk appetite. I have decided now is a good time to seek a new challenge.  I would like to thank the Chairman, the Board and all my colleagues at Prudential for all their support during my time with the Group and I wish the new Chief Executive Mike Wells and the rest of my colleagues every success in the future."
