Ethics Commitee
In order to monitor the continued compliance with the Code of Ethics by those employed by the Company and its subsidiaries and uphold the applicable regulations, the Board of Directors established an Ethics Committee composed of the Group General Counsel (Claudio Criscuolo) and the Group Chief Internal Audit Officer (Franco Doria). The Ethics Committee is also addressed the periodic information report on whistleblowing.
