Episode 4 - Sir John Kingman, Chair, Legal & General
In this episode of 'Pull Up a Chair', Bina is joined by Sir John Kingman, Chair of Legal & General, covering how his experiences in positions at the very top of government and business have shaped his perspectives on investing for sustainable growth, and attracting Global talent.
As former Second Permanent Secretary to HM Treasury, he was at the heart of the UK government’s response to the 2008/9 financial crisis, managing the resolution of Northern Rock and negotiations around the refinancing of UK banks.
Sir John was also the first Chair of UK Research and Innovation, overseeing government science funding of more than £8bn per year, and his eponymous review of the Financial Reporting Council in 2018 recommended the wholesale reform of audit and accounting regulation.
Join the conversation on sustainable growth.
