Shell investors to vote on company overhaul

Investors in Shell will vote today on the most far-reaching overhaul in the oil giant’s 100-year history which could give it a market value of more than £120bn (€180.4bn).

The Anglo-Dutch group is proposing to scrap its twin-board structure as it battles to eliminate failings that led to its reserves crisis last year and has already won the public support of key shareholders.
