LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT
JPMORGAN GLOBAL CONVERTIBLES INCOME FUND LIMITED
CHANGES IN DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
Legal Entity Identifier: 549300DKZ0OX0PZH5H23
Information disclosed in accordance with LR 9.6.11(3)
In 2016 ISS, a shareholder governance agency, questioned the
independence of the Chairman, Simon Miller, on account of his
position as Chairman of Brewin Dolphin, currently the Company's
largest shareholder. The Board does not consider this to be the
case as he is non executive in his duties and therefore has no
influence on the investment process in either company. The Board
believes that Mr Miller is entirely independent. However, to avoid
this question being raised again in the context of the AGM this
year, Mr Miller has resigned from all of the Board's Committees
with effect from 10th October 2017. In future he will attend
Committee meetings by invitation only.
As a consequence, with effect from 10th October 2017 Paul Meader
has become Chairman of the Nomination & Remuneration Committee
and Gailina Liew has been appointed as Chairman of the Management
Engagement Committee.
Also with effect from 10th October 2017, Philip Taylor, the
Audit Committee Chairman, has further been appointed Senior
Independent Director.
11th October 2017
