Dividends
The Board recognises the importance of paying returns to shareholders by way of dividends and expects to deliver, over time, a dividend that is sustainable and progressive rather than targeting a particular payout ratio range
For 2015, the Board has concluded that it is appropriate to plan for a 6.5p distribution, the same level as 2014, while we focus on improving the returns of the business and accelerating the implementation of the strategy whilst maintaining capital strength
A second interim dividend of 1p will be paid on 14 September 2015
