Regulatory News:
The Supervisory Board of Publicis Groupe [Euronext Paris:
FR0000130577, CAC 40] (Paris:PUB) met on March 6, 2019 under
the chairmanship of Maurice Lévy and notably examined the
resolutions to be put before the Annual General Meeting of
shareholders to be held on May 29, 2019.
Particular emphasis was put on the composition of the
Supervisory Board, especially since the terms of office of
Véronique Morali and Marie-Claude Mayer are about to expire. The
Board expressed its warmest thanks and gratitude to Ms Morali and
Ms Mayer for their contribution to the Board and its committees
throughout their terms of office.
The Supervisory Board has decided to take this opportunity to
reinforce its international dimension and the percentage of
independent Directors, at the recommendation of the Nominations
Committee. The Board decided, by unanimous decision, to put the
appointment of the following candidates before the shareholders’
AGM:
- Ms Antonella Mei-Pochtler, whose experience notably at the
helm of BCG in Germany and whose role in developing digital
practices will be major assets for the Supervisory Board;
- Ms Suzan (Suzi) LeVine, a qualified engineer who has held
positions in strategy and education at Microsoft but also in
marketing and communications at Expedia, or more recently as US
Ambassador to Switzerland and Liechtenstein. She is currently
Commissioner for the Washington State Employment Security
Department. Her experience in technology and digital, combined with
her interest in Artificial Intelligence will be of particular
interest to the Board;
- Mr Enrico Letta, after a career in politics during which he
was successively a Member of Parliament, Minister and then
President of the Italian Council, is currently Dean of the Paris
School of International Affairs at Sciences Po in Paris. His expert
knowledge of international affairs will be especially useful to the
Board.
After the AGM and subject to approval of these three nominations
by the shareholders, the Supervisory Board will be comprised of 12
members, 50% of whom will be women and 66% of whom will be
independent Directors.
