High Co - Assemblée Générale des actionnaires du 20 mai 2019

Quelques points d'attention prioritaires sont à signaler.

Tout d'abord, le Conseil d'administration a un taux très faible d'indépendance, à savoir 16,67%. Proxinvest regrette que la société ne propose pas la nomination de membres indépendants dans son conseil.

Par ailleurs, la durée de mandat, de 6 ans, ne respecte pas la pratique de la place.

Enfin, la Société pourrait fortement s'améliorer en matière de communication et transparence, même si cette année les montants en jeu étaient très raisonnables, ce qui permet à Proxinvest de recommander l'approbation des rémunérations 2018.
