Stuart Joyner, specialist sales at finance brokers Redburn, says Shell's move is a clear post Brexit win' for the UK:

Royal Dutch Shell has this morning announced a welcome proposal to unify the company's A and B share structure. The company plans a shareholder vote on December 10 to approve its plan.

It will allow faster buybacks and bring Shell's tax residency into line with its country of incorporation in the United Kingdom, where it will hold board and executive committee meetings, and base senior management. This is a clear post Brexit win for the UK. It is unclear what leaving the Netherlands will mean for the Dutch litigation process given sizeable operations will remain.

This news has no negative consequences for Milieudefensie's climate case against Shell.

Rather, moving to the United Kingdom opens up a new front, including for future cases."
