No way, another black smoke. New postponed to July 15th for the appointment of the board of directors Cassa Depositi e Prestiti. This was indicated in a note from the via Goito company. This is yet another update to the appointments. According to sources also reported by Radiocor, the postponement is due to failure to identify by the Treasury of the candidates for the board of directors, in particular those necessary to take into account gender quotas, While the Minority shareholder foundations have already indicated for some time the three representatives for the new council including the president, Giovanni Gorno Tempini, which will be confirmed. The puzzle, therefore, is the pink quote within the board of directors.
CDP, the puzzle of women's quotas and the Treasury stalemate
But why this stalemate? What is happening in Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, controlled by mef (Ministry of Economy) for the82,77% and by Foundations who hold the 15,93% of the Fund? According to Treasury sources, it would not be possible to give the green light to the single list of candidates. And therefore, while the Foundations have already decided (the placet is shared not only on the president but also on two new entries such as Lucia Calvosa, former president of Eni, and Luigi Guiso, economist), the Treasury is still discussing the shortlist of six self-designated names. There is no doubt now the reconfirmation of Dario Scannapieco as CEO (wanted by Mario Draghi in 2021, today he is moving towards his second term after the prime minister's nomination to the top of the CDP Giorgia Meloni opted for a process in the name of continuity with his predecessor).
Cdp appointments, two weeks
And then, after the nothing happened on 20 and 27 June, the government once again decided to take more time to close the dossier on Cassa. The crux of the dispute remains, as we said, that of female representation within the board: second Mf, of the four women who, according to the statute, should make up the board of directors by virtue of gender balance (the outgoing ones are Livia Amidani Aliberti, Anna Girello Garbi, Fabiana Massa Felsani e Alessandra Ruzzu), the only one currently identified at the entrance is, in fact, Calvosa, an expression of the foundations. On the other three, Palazzo Chigi and via XX Settembre are struggling, quite a bit, to find the composition of the puzzle. Now you have until July 15th: two weeks.
