Generali, tomorrow board: Roberta Neri could replace Caltagirone

The Board of Directors of Generali will meet tomorrow, Tuesday 7 June. The board of the insurance group will tackle the problem of integrating the same board after the resignation of Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone and will examine the opinion of the Appointments committee on the provision of the company statute which regulates the entry of a new member in the event of the replacement of an executive director. of minorities. The bylaws provide that the board of directors will replace him by appointing the first of the unelected candidates from the same list, if still eligible, available to accept the office and belonging to the same gender. The choice of the replacement for Caltagirone will be guided by the interpretation that will be given to the rule. The first of those excluded from the list presented by the Roman entrepreneur is that of Roberta Neri, former managing director of ENAV and former financial director of Acea, but if a more restrictive interpretation prevails, therefore linked to gender, Claudio Costamagna could enter, if still available, Luciano Cirinà, the former manager fired by the company, or the following Alberto Cribiore, Andrea Scrosati or Stefano Marsaglia. If the first node is dissolved, the board of directors could then discuss the composition of the internal board committees and the fate of the strategic operations committee, whose responsibilities the president Andrea Sironi had proposed to bring back to the entire board of directors. In order to proceed, the board of directors is expected to be in full ranks and therefore no definitive decisions are envisaged. Last week, in a hearing with the parliamentary commission of inquiry on the banking and financial system, Sironi had said that he was working on a mediation solution and had called himself “optimistic” about the possibility of an agreement.
