"Mitchell Petchenik and Robert Spriddell have both resigned, as Executive Vice President and Non-Executive Director respectively, with immediate effect. "Arbuthnot Securities Limited has resigned as the company's Nominated Adviser and Broker with immediate effect."

Mr Taule has said IGH will keep interested parties informed with further announcements as and when appropriate.
