The latest Direction from the PRA dated 8 May 2026 in respect of

members of Lloyds Bank plc and Bank of Scotland plc (together, the
‘Ring-Fenced Banks’) also to be board members of Lloyds

Following this change, the Group is pleased to announce that Nigel

Ring-Fenced Banks) will join the Group’s Board as an
independent non-executive director and become a member of the
Group’s Audit Committee, Board Risk Committee, Nomination and
Governance Committee and Remuneration Committee, in all cases on 1
November 2026.
The Boards of the Group and the Ring-Fenced Banks currently operate
an aligned board model and Nigel has attended meetings of the
Group’s Board and its Audit Committee, Board Risk Committee,
Nomination and Governance Committee and Remuneration Committee, in
each case as an observer, since his appointment as Senior
Independent Director of the Ring-Fenced Banks from 1 January
2019.
Two other directors of the Ring-Fenced Banks, Sarah Bentley and
Brendan Gilligan, will step down as directors of the Ring-Fenced
Banks on 28 February 2027 after over 8 years of
service.
Sir Robin Budenberg, Chair, said: “Sarah and Brendan leave
with our best wishes and gratitude. I would like to thank both of
them for their long-standing service to Lloyds Banking Group as
non-executive directors of the Ring-Fenced Banks and as observers
of the Group Board. Their valued insight and sound counsel have
been greatly appreciated in both roles, particularly in relation to
the implementation of our ring-fenced governance arrangements. I am
grateful to Nigel for agreeing to join the Group’s Board and
look forward to his continued contribution.”
