2015 Remuneration Policy guidelines
In line with previous years, the guidelines for 2015 reflect the decisions made by the Board of Directors with regard to the remuneration of executive directors in recent years and presented to the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of 15 April 2014, which approved the 2014 Remuneration Report.
