Message from our Chairman
Dear Shareholder
The events of the past year have been extraordinary. After years of devastating drought conditions, Australia faced a summer of severe bushfires, floods and storms, followed by the global COVID-19 pandemic. The economic impacts of this crisis are being felt across our communities and around the world, while the health implications are changing the way our society operates.
Your health and safety is our number one priority and in light of the uncertainty surrounding future restrictions on travel and mass gatherings, we are changing the way we host this year's Annual General Meeting (AGM).
Suncorp's 2020 AGM will be held online at 10.00am Brisbane time (11.00am Sydney time) on Thursday, 22 October.
We recognise and respect the importance of ensuring your Board is accessible to shareholders. This new online format will allow all our shareholders located across Australia and overseas to participate in the AGM, regardless of location, via their computer, tablet or mobile phone.
While it will be a different experience for those who have historically attended the AGM in person, I assure you that you will have the same opportunities to watch the Chairman and Group CEO addresses, and to vote and ask questions throughout the meeting.
The information outlined on the next two pages of this Notice of Meeting provides an overview of the new online format. A detailed guide on how to participate , along with a list of frequently asked questions, are available on our website at suncorpgroup.com.au/investors/AGM.
In making this decision, your directors have put the health and safety of our shareholders and the community first. As and when restrictions ease in the coming months, we will look for suitable opportunities to engage face-to-face once again with our shareholders.
Business of the AGM
The Notice of Meeting also sets out the business of the AGM. With the Board's endorsement, we will be seeking your vote on Resolutions 1-3, as explained on the following pages:
- 2019-20Remuneration Report (an advisory resolution)
- Grant of performance rights to the Group CEO & Managing Director
3a) Election of Elmer Funke Kupper as a director, who joined your Board on 1 January this year
3b) Re-election of Simon Machell as a director. Simon was elected by shareholders in September 2017 and is therefore required to retire and stand for re-election again this year.
Your Board appreciates your ongoing support,
and we look forward to connecting with you, virtually, on Thursday, 22 October.
Yours faithfully
CHRISTINE MCLOUGHLIN
CHAIRMAN
