CHANGE OF NAME TO BARINGS EMERGING EMEA OPPORTUNITIES PLC

16 November 2020

Baring Emerging Europe PLC (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to its announcement of 13 November 2020 and with effect from 15 November 2020, it has changed its name to Barings Emerging EMEA Opportunities PLC.

This name change follows the approval by shareholders of the Company’s change of investment policy at a general meeting held on 13 November 2020. The Board believes the new name better represents the remit of the Company’s new investment policy.

The Company's ISIN and SEDOL will remain the same. The Company’s trading symbol will change from “BEE” to “BEMO” with effect from 17 November 2020, or shortly thereafter.

The change of Company name will not affect any rights of shareholders and existing share certificates should be retained as they will remain valid.
