BP boss vows to ‘reset’ strategy after annual profits slump

The FTSE 100 firm reported a 36% drop in profits to £7 billion, as speculation grows that it will turn away from renewables to improve returns.

BP’s boss has pledged to “fundamentally reset” the firm’s strategy as annual profits slumped by more than a third and as the oil giant faces pressure from an activist investor.
