The Ubi assembly, which was held today in Bergamo and which was the first in the form of a spa, appointed the new Supervisory Board for the three-year period 2016-8, of which the entrepreneur Andrea Moltrasio will be president, with Mario Cera deputy vice president. But the real news is that the funds won out compared to the traditional shareholders: in fact, the Assogestioni list collected 51,1% of the votes (against 48,8% of the list that represented the members of the syndicate pact) and placed in the board all its candidates while renouncing, as usual, the leadership in favor of Moltrasio.
The UBI shareholders' meeting also approved the distribution of a dividend of 0,11 euro per share, which will be paid at the end of May, for a total outlay of 99 million euro.
In the Bpm house, having vanished the possibility of a single plank, instead an agreement is looming between employee and retired shareholders which should bring the economist and former parliamentarian Nicola Rossi to the presidency of the Supervisory Board in place of the outgoing president Piero Giarda.
Rossi, who is also the creator of the way out of the CCB reform for cooperative credit banks that do not want to group together in the single holding company, will act as a ferryman in view of the transformation of Bpm into a spa and the subsequent merger with Banco Popolrae, targeted recently on the stock market for the next one billion euro capital increase.
