Governance

COMPANY

OVERVIEW

Reputation, founded upon integrity

When it comes to achieving strategic objectives and creating sustainable long-term value, the importance of a robust system of corporate governance cannot be underestimated.

Prysmian's Corporate Governance system is based on the implementation of the following criteria:

Transparency in operational decisions

Effective internal controls

Rigorous rules regarding conflicts of interest

Solid principles of conduct governing transactions with related parties.

The Prysmian’s Corporate Governance structure has been drawn from the principles and the recommendations found in the Corporate Governance Code, by which the Company abides. The rules of Corporate Governance are a direct expression of the principles and the procedures that the Prysmian has adopted and undertakes to comply with to ensure effectiveness and transparency in all transactions. Prysmian has implemented this system by drawing up and adopting rules and procedures that regulate the performance of all the Prysmian’s organizational and operational bodies.

Effectiveness and transparency

The Company seeks to keep its system of governance constantly aligned with the relevant external regulations and recommendations, and compliant with national and international best practices.

Specific principles, rules and procedures govern and guide the conduct of all activities by our organisational and operating units, as well as ensuring that all business transactions are carried out in an effective and transparent manner.

Improve, always

With the aim of continually improving our governance system, we are fully committed to implementing the principles and recommendations contained in the Code of Corporate Governance for Listed Companies, approved in January 2020 by the Corporate Governance Committee, made up of business associations (ABI, ANIA, Assonime, Confindustria), Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and Assogestioni
