More information

The ministerial order adapts the rules of corporate governance obligations of Law 2/2011 of March 4 on Sustainable Economy and the Royal Decree 11/2010 of 9 July on governance and other aspects of the legal regime of savings. The rule also addresses the definition of the types of directors that was broadly contained in the Code of Good Governance. These definitions now include a general provision, subject to the provisions of the Securities Market Act, regarding non-compliance on social issues. The Annual Report of Remunerations must contain the policy approved by the Board of Directors and the individual details of the remuneration received by each of the directors.
