Mr Colombás has agreed to remain in post and stay on the Board until September 18, 2020.

Lloyds Banking Group PLC (LON:LLOY) today announces that its Chief Operating Officer and Director, Juan Colombás, has agreed to delay his retirement.

Let’s recall that, in October 2019, Lloyds announced the proposed July 2020 retirement of Mr Colombás. Today, Lloyds confirms that he will remain in post and stay on the Board until September 18, 2020.

The revised departure date will allow Mr Colombas to continue playing a key role in the Group’s response to the Covid-19 crisis, Lloyds explains.
