"I would like to thank Mark Seligman for his significant contribution to the Board and its committees since his appointment in April 2017. During his tenure, Mark has dedicated significant time to NatWest and has been a highly valued director and colleague. We will miss his wise counsel and contributions around the Board table. He leaves with our very best wishes for the future.

Lena Wilson is a highly experienced Board member who has demonstrated strong leadership and is highly regarded by her fellow directors. I am confident she will make a valuable contribution to the Board as Senior Independent Director. In addition, Lena will continue to chair the Group Performance & Remuneration Committee.

Finally, I am delighted to welcome Gill Whitehead to the NWG Board. Gill's deep expertise in data science and analytics, emerging customer focused technologies, global technology regulation and digital transformation are all highly relevant skills. She will be a strong addition to the Board."
