Elliott nominates 7 directors to Phillips 66 board, Reuters reports

Elliott Management has nominated seven directors to the board of Phillips 66 (PSX), including John Pike, who is leading the campaign for changes that include spinning off or selling its midstream business, Reuters’ Svea Herbst-Bayliss reports, citing two people familiar with the matter.

Elliott privately nominated executives with investment, financial, legal and energy experience, the sources said.
