Getting a Lord on board

According to The Times, Kazakhmys 'is one of a growing number of companies from the former Soviet Union who are hiring lords as non-executive directors to improve their corporate governance credentials prior to London listings. The paper reported that:

Even the largest and most reputable foreign companies are eager to appoint British advisers. Lord Renwick of Clifton joined the board of the Kazakh copper company Kazakhmys before its Ј661 million listing on the London Stock Exchange in December 2005. Lord Renwick was suggested by JP Morgan Cazenove, the lead-manager of the IPO, where he is a vice-chairman. Lord Renwick said: “I am not on the board (of Kazakhmys) because I am a member of the House of Lords but because I have many years’ experience in the mining industry.”[1]
