(Adnkronos) - Le azioni di risparmio nascono negli anni ‘70 come strumento di investimento capace di avvicinare il risparmiatore italiano al mercato dei capitali, garantendogli maggiori tutele rispetto alle azioni ordinarie. Fondamentale nel settore delle azioni di risparmio è il ruolo del rappresentante comune, che ha il compito di portare alle aziende la voce degli azionisti di risparmio, che non hanno diritto di voto in assemblea, come spiega Stella D’Atri, rappresentante comune WeBuild.

00:00 Introduced in the 1970s as an investment tool capable of bringing the Italian
00:09 saver closer to the capital market, savings actions on the one hand represent a share
00:13 of a company's capital and, as ordinary actions depend on the business's progress,
00:17 on the other hand they provide greater protection, guaranteeing a fixed dividend in the presence
00:22 of assets and patrimonial protection, thus approaching the concept of obligation.
00:26 The voice of the saver's shareholders, who have not given their votes in the Assembly,
00:31 is the common representative.
00:33 The common representative serves as an aggregate element of the saver's partners in this case,
00:40 because obviously it acts as a spokesman for the positions of the category in the company's
00:45 relations, both in informal situations, as could be the case with management, and in the
00:52 field of ordinary and extraordinary assemblies of the company, where, as I said, the saver's
00:58 partners cannot participate, but the representative can do so both to listen, and therefore to
01:05 refer to the saver's partners what has happened, but also and above all to bring to the attention
01:12 of the management and the company the issues that are important to the category.
01:17 And so it could be almost a professional role that is provided by the listed companies
01:23 to assist the partners, to understand, as I said before, the financial information
01:28 spread by the company, to gather the points of view of the minority partners, precisely
01:33 in the context of the European directives, in particular I think of the Shareholders'
01:37 Rights, which encourages companies to make their partners feel involved and to carry
01:42 out a transparent and sustainable business management.
01:47 A company like WeBuild, which needs to face society, the public, cannot simply
01:54 limit itself to managing finance, to managing business in the course of construction,
02:03 of the realization of works, and the shareholders not in control can be a useful antenna on
02:09 the territory, precisely to favor this greater interaction with these shareholders of savings,
02:15 I have been active both with a greater frequency of assemblies, therefore of meetings for this
02:23 category, but I am also exploring the use of innovative technological instruments that
02:32 can favor both formal meetings, such as an assembly, a remote assembly, but also informal
02:41 meetings, such as simply the use of a site that, however, uses innovative technology
02:47 tools, not to say artificial intelligence, precisely to collect information from the
02:53 partners who are distributed throughout the national territory and provide them with a
02:59 greater flexibility, if we want, of the information that is known to the market.
