Anglo American Platinum Ltd has published its Notice of Annual General Meeting which is due to be held in the Auditorium, 18th Floor, 55 Marshall Street, Marshalltown, Johannesburg at 10:00am on Thursday, 16 April 2020 (“the AGM”).
The AGM is an important event in the Company's corporate calendar. It provides the board of directors (the "Board") with an opportunity to engage with shareholders and for shareholders to vote on resolutions that provide the Board with the ability to manage the business and affairs of the Company between AGMs.
