The Board confirmed Matteo Del Fante as the Company's Chief Executive Officer.
The Board also approved the power structure, granting Chairman Silvia Maria Rovere both the role of overseeing audit activities and, in consultation with the CEO, managing relations with institutional bodies and authorities. The CEO has been granted the powers to administer the Company, except for those otherwise granted by applicable law, the bylaws, or retained by the Board of Directors within its scope of competence.
The Board then verified (i) that Chairwoman Silvia Maria Rovere and Directors Carlo d'Asaro Biondo, Alessandro Marchesini, Salvatore Muscarella, Vincenza Patrizia Rutigliano, Francesco Scacchi, and Vanda Ternau met the independence requirements set forth in the Consolidated Law on Finance, the prudential regulations for the banking sector (applicable to Poste Italiane due to the BancoPosta activities conducted by the Companies through BancoPosta Capital), and the Corporate Governance Code, as well as (ii) that Director Olga Cuccurullo met only the independence requirements set forth in the Consolidated Law on Finance and the Corporate Governance Code.
Finally, the Board postponed the reconstitution of the Board Committees to a future meeting.
