STM Group PLC (AIM:STM), the cross border financial services provider, announces that on the 26 September 2011, Matt Wood resigned as a non-executive director of the Group in order to concentrate on his other business interests.
Julian Telling, Non-executive Chairman of STM, commented:
"The Board is immensely grateful for the instrumental role that Matt played in the creation and flotation of STM over the last 5 years and for his input into all plc-related matters of the Group. We are saddened by his decision but understand his reasoning and we wish him well in all his future endeavors".
Matt Wood added:
"With the recent new additions to the Board, the Group's international presence having now been established in Gibraltar, Spain, Jersey and Malta, and the Group's focus firmly on developing new products and distribution channels, it is time for me to concentrate on my other corporate finance related interests. There is a significant opportunity for STM to become a key player in the international wealth sector, especially with its international pension products and the growth of STM Life and I am looking forward to following the Group's continued success."
