EiDF approves major changes for the company at its shareholders meeting. The firm specialized in photovoltaic solar energy installations has announced the transfer of its registered office from Galicia to Madrid, will incorporate four new directors and will reinforce its crime prevention policy with the appointment of a new compliance officer.
Specifically, investors yesterday gave the green light to the transfer of its headquarters to Madrid, which was located in the municipality of Barro (Pontevedra). The decision seeks to “be closer” to the financial markets and the economic activity where it carries out part of its activity, as indicated this Friday by the group founded by Fernando Romero. In parallel, the members of its board of directors have been increased from nine to one, with Laura Bravo Ramasco, Guillermo Poch Sala, Laura Zendrera Roig and Tiago Moreira da Silva joining.
The investors have chosen a man of the house, José María Covelo Fernández, from the legal department, to be the new compliance officer. Specifically, he will be in charge of directing the Regulatory Compliance Committee, of which the commercial director, David Pintos, is also a member, and will also rely on the different area managers of the company.
As highlighted in the note sent to BME Growth, the objective of these decisions is part of the board’s desire to transmit “exemplary” conduct for the entire organization. The points of the day approved at the meeting also include the approval of the 2022 annual accounts after the delay in their presentation, which led to the suspension of its listing, in addition to the approval of the management of the body or administration last year, as well as the approval of his remuneration for 2023 and following, which has been set at 442,000 euros.
The company has been suspended from trading for more than four months. The Deloitte report had detected evidence of possible falsification of contracts and documents prepared by those responsible for the company, in addition to incidents related to invoices and payments for services that could not have been provided. Despite this, in the first preview of the legal opinion that EiDF commissioned from KPMG, the firm does not see sufficient elements to classify any of the conduct described in Deloitte’s letter as a criminal offense.
