Bouygues - Assemblée Générale du 25 avril 2019
Le conseil d'administration présente un nombre insuffisant de membres libres de conflits d'intérêts et la famille Bouygues y est sur-représentée (30,8% des sièges pour une détention de 21,6% du capital). Par ailleurs, une candidate au renouvellement présente un nombre de mandats trop important et une autre n'a assisté qu'à 71% des réunions du conseil en 2018. Enfin, le processus de désignation des représentants des salariés actionnaires n'ait pas satisfaisant car il n'est pas totalement indépendant de la direction. Ce grief est d'autant crucial en raison de l'importance de l'actionnariat salarié au sein de Bouygues (19% du capital et 26% des droits de vote) (résolutions 12 à 19)
Bouygues est l'une des rares sociétés du CAC 40 à proposer à ses actionnaires l'utilisation de dispositifs anti-OPA à travers le maintien en période d'offre des autorisations d'augmentation de capital et l'émission de bons Breton. Proxinvest s'oppose de longue date à ces pratiques et nous recommandons l'opposition aux résolutions 22, 24 à 30 et 34).
