Stephen Lansdown steps down as Hargreaves executive

Stephen Lansdown has resigned as an executive director of Hargreaves Lansdown and has taken up a non-executive position at the company.

Lansdown said he had stepped down from the executive position in order to pursue his other interests.

‘Over the course of the year my role has been to focus on challenging the Board, to ensure it operates efficiently and profitably,' he said. 'I feel this is a role more suited to a non-executive and have, therefore, stepped down from my executive directorships. This will also allow me to concentrate on other interests.’

Bristol City F.C. is one of them!

Probably Bristol City FC and the new stadium plans are his main interest at the moment.

OK, so just what precisely is the difference between his roles as “Executive Director” and “Non-Executive Director”? Will he still receive a huge wedge of director’s fees? Will he be any worse off, financially?

More importantly, as a shareholder, should I be bothered?

It would be interesting to have answers to Alan's questions.

Should be good for Bristol City if not for H-L
