Banco di Desio e della Brianza’s board has confirmed that the mandate of CEO and General Manager Alessandro Decio will end at the shareholders’ meeting to approve the 2025 financial statements, in line with the original term granted in 2020. The bank has approved an exit agreement consistent with its remuneration policy and Bank of Italy rules, including incentives tied to past MBO and LTI plans and a €692,000 non-compete payment, with deferral, malus and clawback mechanisms remaining in force.
