About Schroders plc

Schroders plc

The history of Schroders began in 1804 when JH Schroder became a partner in J.F. Schröder & Co, a London-based firm founded by his brother JF Schroder. It has evolved since then into the company today known as Schroders plc. Throughout that time, the Schroder family have maintained a significant interest in the business, which the Company believes has been a significant benefit to it. Today, the interests of some members of the Schroder family (being certain descendants of the late Helmut Schroder and, in some cases, their spouse or former spouse) are spread across a number of parties, who are collectively known as the Principal Shareholder Group. The Principal Shareholder Group is comprised of a number of private trustee companies (and investment companies controlled by those trustee companies), a number of Schroder family individuals, and a Schroder family charity which, directly or indirectly, are Shareholders in the Company. The current aggregate Principal Shareholder Group holding the Schroders plc shares is 44.11%.
