Vista Group congratulates James Miller on FMA Chair appointment

Vista Group International Limited (NZX & ASX:VGL) congratulates its independent director, James Miller ONZM, on his appointment as chair of the Financial Markets Authority (FMA), announced last week by the Minister of Finance, Hon. Nicola Willis.

In order to ensure that he has sufficient capacity to meet the responsibilities of this new role, James has informed Vista Group’s Board that he intends to stand down as a director once a suitable non-executive director candidate has joined the Board.

Vista Group Chair, Susan Peterson, said: “James is one of New Zealand's most respected independent directors, and since his appointment in 2021, Vista Group has benefited from his experience and expertise, including in his role as chair of Vista Group’s Audit and Risk Committee. We are very grateful for the significant contribution James has made over his tenure.”

“Over many years, James has made an exceptional contribution to the development of New Zealand's capital markets both in a professional and governance capacity. He is uniquely qualified for this important role, and we couldn’t be more confident in the growth and development of New Zealand’s financial markets under his stewardship. On behalf of Vista Group’s Board and management, I would like to thank James for his service to Vista Group and for his strong sense of public service that has led him to accept the role of Chair of the FMA.”

“The Board is working with James to ensure there is a seamless transition. We will provide a further update in due course.”
