Continuing Education Programt
This initiative aims to support independent members of
governance bodies by promoting their integration, deepening
their knowledge of the financial industry, and enhancing their
understanding of the internal context.
In 2022, the program tackled four subjects: metaverse,
cryptocurrencies, cyber, and carbon market. We also initiated
the corporate governance program for officers, with the aim
of broadening their knowledge and providing insights into the
structural and legal aspects of the topic.

Performance review of the Board and Advisory
Committees
Our Board of Directors and its committees undergo two
reviews. The first one is conducted by the Board itself, with an
exclusive focus on performance and effectiveness. The other
is an assessment of the bodies and each individual member
of the Board of Directors, aimed at identifying strengths and
opportunities for improvement.
We engage the services of a specialized external consultancy
to ensure absolute impartiality in this undertaking. The findings
are shared with both the Board of Directors and the Nomination
and Governance Committee.
With the aim of ensuring the technical qualifications, experience,
and skills, the composition of the Board of Directors and its
advisory committees is also assessed on an annual basis.
