Changes to VINCI's
Board of Directors
In 2010, VINCI's Board of
Directors innovated by creating the position of Lead Director. This
innovation was adopted as a best practice by many other companies
listed on the Paris stock market. VINCI's Board of Directors
decided at that time to appoint its Vice-Chairman as Lead Director.
To date, combining the roles of Vice-Chairman and Lead Director of
the Board has been particularly effective for the Group.
Now, in view of VINCI's
significant growth, especially in the international arena, and to
stakeholder expectations in terms of corporate social
responsibility (CSR), as well as to better integrate changes to
best practices in the field of corporate governance, VINCI's Board
of Directors has decided to separate the roles of Vice-Chairman and
Lead Director of the Board.
Consequently, the Vice-Chairman
has been assigned duties relative to representing the Group,
participating in shareholders' meetings and, more generally,
assisting the Chairman; providing his insight to the Board on the
Group's operations and organisation; and chairing the Board of
Director's Strategy and CSR Committee. Mr Yves-Thibault de Silguy
is confirmed in his position as Vice-Chairman.
In addition, the Board has
assigned to Mrs Yannick Assouad, Chief Executive Officer of
Latécoère and member of the Board, the position of Independent Lead
Director. Mrs Assouad will be responsible for ensuring the Board's
good corporate governance. She will also chair its Appointments and
Corporate Governance Committee.
The internal rules of VINCI's
Board of Directors have been revised accordingly. They will be
available on www.vinci.com.
