Self-assessment of the Supervisory Board

Equal representation of men and women on the Board

The Board currently consists of seven members, including four women. As such, the company complies with the legal provisions regarding gender equality applicable at the end of the Annual General Meeting held in 2017, namely, given the size of the Board, a maximum difference of two between the number of members of each gender.

At its meeting of 16 November 2017, the Board carried out the annual assessment of its operation and its work and those of its Audit and Remuneration Committees, with no particular comments to make in this regard. An assessment via a questionnaire sent out to each Supervisory Board member is planned during the course of 2019.
