Generali: Stefano Marsaglia joins the Leone board in place of Caltagirone

Stefano Marsaglia joins the board of Generali, appointed by majority vote by co-optation. The Board of Directors of the Lion met today, 15 July, under the chairmanship of Andrea Sironi, to appoint the replacement for Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone, who resigned after the confirmation of Philippe Donnet in the role of managing director and the tear on the internal committees.

The Board, specifies a note issued to the insurance group, examined the candidates included in the list presented - names kept strictly confidential until the end - on the occasion of the shareholders' meeting held in Trieste on 29 April 2022, by the shareholder VM 2006 Srl , not named on that occasion. Therefore, “took note of the unavailability of Claudius Costamagna, he held, by majority vote and with the dissent of the Councillors Marina Brogi e Flavio Cattaneo, lacking the requirements for the appointment of the former manager of Generali Luciano Cirina and put the nominations of Alberto Cribiore, Maria Varsellona, ​​Paola Schwizer e Andrea Scrosati, for each of which there was the favorable vote of the majority of the Board. However, since these candidates conditional their acceptance on a unanimous vote, the nomination (as previously occurred with the candidate Roberta Neri) was not completed: the Board thus proceeded, again with a majority and with the dissent of the Directors Brogi and Cattaneo, to appoint Stefano Marsaglia. This appointment was approved by the Board of Statutory Auditors".

Last week Consob sent a letter to the Lion of Trieste to understand the reasons behind the stop of candidate Cirinà.
