Informa has launched a search for a new chairman, engaging the headhunting firm Russell Reynolds Associates to find a successor to John Rishton. Rishton has chaired the company since 2021 and joined its board in September 2016. He is expected to step down around 2027, after approximately 11 years as a director.
Informa, which owns Lloyd's List, a historic maritime news service, currently has a market capitalisation of about £11.3 billion. CEO Lord Carter has relocated to Dubai to support growth in the Gulf region, a move that increases the likelihood he will extend his tenure by at least two years.
Informa's shares closed at 885.2p. The company has not commented on the chairman search.
