Governance in brief

We have adopted a traditional administration and control model, which we believe is the most suitable for ensuring management efficiency and effectiveness of controls. This model has so far proven successful in terms of the creation of value for shareholders, the strengthening of capital and financial equilibrium.

Proper governance is the prerequisite for effective business management.

We adhere to the purposes and indications of the Corporate Governance Code and our governance system is in line with the principles and the recommendations established by the Supervisory Body, Code and best practices of the market.

Our goal is to always ensure the fair division of responsibilities and powers, through a correct balance between management and control.
