Creating lasting value for all stakeholders
The keys to our performance
Engaged governance
In 2014, CNP Assurances stepped up its transformation and launched various strategic projects with the unflagging support of its Board of Directors.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors of CNP Assurances is comprised of 18 directors, including six women, three non-voting directors and four Works Council representatives. Its membership reflects the close involvement of the reference shareholders and the vision of qualified independent directors. The Chairman leads the work of the Board and the Strategy Committee. The Committees of the Board are chaired by independent directors.
Together, the members of the Board of Directors have the skills and business experience required to serve on the board of an insurance company. These include experience of the insurance and financial markets, a good understanding of the Company’s strategy, business model and governance system, financial and actuarial analysis skills and knowledge of the regulatory environment.
Executive Committee
The Chief Executive Officer implements the strategy decided by the Board and has the broadest powers to act in the name of the CNP Assurances Group. He is assisted by an Executive Committee made up of 12 members representing the Group’s strategic functions: partnerships, finance, risk management, information systems, general administration and human resources. In its role as coordinator, the Executive Committee deals with all issues that extend across departmental boundaries.
At least one Executive Committee member sits on the boards of the main subsidiaries in France, and CNP Assurances appoints at least half of the members of the international subsidiaries’ boards, guaranteeing consistent strategic management across the Group.
