Corporate Governance

We’ve adopted a traditional management and auditing approach to efficiently manage and audit an international group such as Telepass.

This approach is based on the presence of two corporate bodies appointed at the annual general meeting: the Board of Directors and Board of Statutory Auditors.

As suggested by the Board of Statutory Auditors, an external auditing firm is appointed at the annual general meeting to audit financial statements.

Board of Directors

  • Ezio Bassi, Chairman
  • Gabriele Benedetto, CEO
  • Ugo Govigli, Director
  • Alessandro Decio, Independent Director
  • Alberto Grignolo, Independent Director
  • Franca Bertagnin Benetton, Director
  • Elisabetta de Bernardi di Valserra, Director
  • Paolo Amato, Director
  • Marcel Erni, Director
  • Jurg Weber, Director
  • Nicholas Pepper, Director

Board of Statutory Auditors

  • Carlo Regoliosi, Chairman
  • Lelio Fornabaio, Statutory Auditor
  • Francesco Bonifacio, Statutory Auditor

The Telepass Board of Directors has also set up two Committees, in line with the Code of Conduct, that are in charge of the following functions: investigations, consultations, and making suggestions. These Committees are presided over by Independent Directors:

Audit, Risk, and Sustainability Committee

Members: Paolo Amato (President), Elisabetta de Bernardi, and Alessandro Decio

Mission: This Committee assists the Board of Directors in evaluating and making decisions regarding internal audit and risk management systems, sustainability policy adoption and implementation, and transactions with related parties.

Technology and Innovation Committee

Members: Alberto Grignolo (President), Franca Bertagnin Benetton, and Jurg Weber

Mission: This Committee assists the Board of Directors in evaluating and making decisions regarding direct and indirect investments in technology and innovation, and in assessing business collaborations and alliances in these sectors. This Committee also works with the Audit, Risk, and Sustainability Committee in assessing risks linked to technology and cyber security profiles.

Human Resources and Compensation Committee

Members: Alessandro Decio (President), Elisabetta de Bernardi, and Livio Fenati

Mission: The Committee assists the Board of Directors in evaluating and making decisions regarding the selection and compensation of the company and group’s key management members. The Committee also assists the Board of Directors in evaluating and making decisions on strategic human resources management issues.

Telepass has also set up a Group Internal Auditing function, which reports to the Board of Directors and assists Internal Committees.

This function works independently and provides assurance services. It works in line with the Audit Charter, approved by the Board of Directors, and aims to streamline how the company is organised.
