On December 4, 2023, Mr. Ewout Steenbergen, Executive Vice President informed S&P Global Inc. that he will leave the Company to pursue another professional opportunity. Mr. Steenbergen will remain with the Company through March 2024, to ensure continuity and an orderly transition. Mr. Steenburgen?s departure is not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

Mr. Steenburgen?s existing compensation arrangements will continue in effect in accordance with their current terms and conditions during his employment with the Company. Steenbergen played an instrumental role in acquiring Kensho, S&P Global?s artificial intelligence and innovation hub. He was a core member of the S&P Global leadership team that completed the company?s historic merger with IHS Market in 2022, and served as President of the Engineering Solutions division prior to the company?s divestiture in May 2023.

Steenbergen also drove the introduction of new performance metrics, including the climate-adjusted earnings per share and S&P Global?s vitality index, a measure of the percentage of revenues derived from new or enhanced products. Under his leadership, S&P Global?s investor relations program has consistently received recognition from investors and analysts alike.
