Carol Campbell retirement as a director and Dan Coman appointment
Carol Campbell, independent director, has advised that she intends to retire from the board of Kingfish on 31 December 2025. Carol joined the board in 2012 and has chaired the Audit and Risk Committee throughout her tenure. Carol has contributed enormously to the board with her commercial, financial and governance experience. To fill that upcoming vacancy, and to provide some overlap, the board of Kingfish is pleased to announce that Dan Coman will commence as an independent director of Kingfish Limited, effective 1 October 2025.
Chair Andy Coupe says “Dan will provide excellent complementary skills to the Kingfish board. Dan was the Deputy Chief Financial Officer for IAG Australia, having previously been Chief Financial Officer for IAG New Zealand. Dan’s earlier background provided him with considerable exposure to the wealth management and funds management sectors. Dan has a very strong understanding of listed company compliance and regulatory responsibilities.”
In accordance with the company’s Constitution and NZX Listing Rules, Dan’s appointment will run from 1 October 2025 until the next annual meeting in August 2026 when he will stand for election by shareholders. The board intends that Dan will succeed Carol as the chair of the Audit and Risk Committee on her retirement.
