Capgemini - AGM and EGM 23 May 2019

The Board of Directors will have one additional director and will increase from 13 to 14 members. Two nominations are proposed and will be supported as the candidates are independent (resolutions 10 and 11).

The company's disclosure is in line with the CAC 40's best practices. However, the total amounts of the Chairman and CEO's compensation are excessive, exceeding our limit, due in particular to a very high fixed compensation. There are no changes in the compensation policy for 2019. Therefore, we recommend to oppose to resolutions 5 and 8.

The compensation of the two Deputy CEO - one of whom will succeed Paul Hermelin - benefits from the same disclosure and a balanced structure with amounts that remain acceptable. Resolutions 6, 7 and 9 will therefore be supported.
