Proxy Report - 27/04/2018
Items 13-19: We regret that CNP Assurances did not take advantage of the mandate renewal of several of its directors in order to increase the independence rate on its Board Items 20-21: We welcome the fact that the Company decided to exclude the authorisation to repurchase shares and to issue shares with pre-emptive rights during a public takeover period and hence recommend that shareholders vote for said resolutions.
Item 22: CNP requests the authorisation to issue contingent convertible securities (CoCos). Given that the potential dilution of 10% does not exceed the maximum in our guidelines and that the potential conversion discount is not considered excessive compared to market practice, we recommend that shareholders approve this resolution.
