Governance overview
Our corporate governance system, based on the traditional administration and control model, is aligned with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code of listed companies, to which we adhere, and national and international best practices.
Italgas’ corporate governance system is founded on certain basic principles, such as fair and transparent management of the business, also ensured by information flows between corporate bodies and the efficient definition of the internal control and risk management system.
Our corporate governance system, aligned with the national and international best practices of the companies we compare ourselves with, was defined in accordance with the Corporate Governance Code of listed companies, to which we have adhered since we returned to the stock market. In December 2020, we subscribed to the new version of the Code, which applies from 1 January 2021 and places increasing focus on sustainability issues.
We have adopted the traditional administration and control model, under which the company management is assigned to the Board of Directors and the supervisory duties are attributed to the Board of Statutory Auditors. Their accounts are audited by an independent auditing firm.
