by admin

MILANO – The movements on the upper floors of the Generali continue, where the Caltagirone-Del Vecchio axis is organizing the moves to challenge the Mediobanca block in view of the renewal of the top management of the company in the spring assembly.

After the resignation from the role of vice president by Caltagirone, who with the eyewear entrepreneur has formed a hostile pact to the CEO Donnet (now reached 16.2%), also comes the step back from the board by Romolo Bardin , independent director of Trieste and member of the Nomination and Remuneration Committees; for Investments; for strategic operations; for Related Party Transactions. In the morning, Bardin announced his resignation from the board.

This is a move, expected in recent days, which is not accidental: Bardin is the CEO of Leonardo Del Vecchio’s Delfin (which holds 6.6% of Generali), and has motivated his resignation, which follows those of Francesco Getano Caltagirone “referring to the operating procedures and to some choices of the Board and of the Committees in which he participates, with particular regard also to the process of forming the list of the BoD”.

The reading of the move is that Bardin thus prepares the field to enter the competing list, which the three Generali partners – with the two large private partners there is also the Crt Foundation – plan to present in February. Their intent is to convince “the market”, owner of approximately 35% of Generali, to prefer it to the list of the outgoing board, which will include the CEO Philippe Donnet for one of his trio.

Bardin’s decision was commented by the president of the company, Gabriele Galateri di Genola, in the press release announcing the resignation from the Board of Directors of the representative of Leonardo Del Vecchio: “I regret the decision taken by Dr. Bardin. I want to reiterate, also in this opportunity, that the company has always conducted its business according to criteria of absolute transparency and rigorous fairness, in the interest of all stakeholders. These principles, which I confirm, have always been adhered to in relations with all directors, without exception any and on every occasion “.
