  1. The Appointments Committee engaged the external consultant Egon Zehnder to carry out the Self-assessment process and the peer review process, as provided for by Annex A to the Regulations of the Corporate Bodies of FinecoBank S.p.A. Such processes also served to define the optimal qualitative and quantitative composition of the future Board of Directors and the individual profiles to be sought.

    1. Following the self-assessment process, the Appointments Committee, with the support of Egon Zehnder, identified the personal, professional and independence characteristics considered optimal in relation to the office of director of FinecoBank's Board of Directors or to the specific position. The document entitled "Qualitative and Quantitative Composition of the Board of Directors of FinecoBank S.p.A." was subsequently approved by the Board of Directors (the "Quali-Quanti Profile of the Board").

      1. Appointment of the External Consultant 2. Definition of the candidates' profiles

  2. The Committee engaged the external consultants Egon Zehnder and Crisci & Partners to identify the theoretical profiles of the candidates to be sought for the office of director, as well as to select such candidates. In particular, Crisci & Partners was engaged to search for profiles specialising in the ICT & Security area, in order to meet the need to further strengthen the Board's expertise in this area. Egon Zehnder was entrusted with the search for the other profiles.

  1. Following the self-assessment process and the peer review, the Appointments Committee, with the support of the external consultants, also identified the individual new profiles to be sought.

Specifically, 9 new profiles were identified (to be added to the 4 current directors who had expressed their willingness to be confirmed), as well as a further 4 profiles in order to comply with the one-third increase requirement introduced by the Capital Markets Law.

In selecting both external consultants, the Appointments Committee took into account, as required by the Selection Process, the consultants' professional background and experience in corporate governance, as well as the need for neutrality, objectivity and independence of judgement.

Implementation of the Board of Directors selection process: Phases (2/2)

4.g) The shortlist of candidates identified by the Appointments Committee was

submitted to the Board of Directors at its meeting of 18 February 2026.

Following specific preliminary work and taking into account the favourable opinion of the Appointments Committee, and after verifying suitability requirements, the Board of Directors approved the Board List to be submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting.

4. Preparation of the list of candidates



  1. Following the Appointments Committee's activities carried out in December, January and February, the external consultants - Egon Zehnder and Crisci & Partners -each submitted to the Appointments Committee a long list based on the indications provided by the Committee. The lists contained the names of potential candidates matching the characteristics set out in the Board's Quali-Quanti Profile and the individual new profiles to be sought.

    The Appointments Committee then examinated each long list and identified the candidates to be interviewed, in order to assess their profile in practice, their time availability and their soft skills.

List submitted by the Board of Directors: key features

RIGOROUS AND TRANSPARENT SELECTION PROCESS

  • Candidates were selected through a transparent and well-structured selection process.

    COMPOSITION

  • The list submitted by the Board of Directors (the "List") was defined in compliance with the rules under the new Article 147-ter.1 of the TUF, introduced by the Capital Markets Law, and the related implementing provisions

    set forth in the Issuers' Regulation, as well as the new provisions of the Articles of Association approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 10 March 2026.

  • The List reflects the new recommendations on the quantitative composition of the Board, as set out in the Qualitative and Quantitative Profile of the Board of Directors, pursuant to which the optimal size of the new Board was identified as 13 directors.

  • In light of the new statutory and regulatory provisions, as well as the recommendations made by the outgoing Board, the List includes 13 candidates, plus an additional 4 candidates required to comply with the one-third increase requirement introduced by the Capital Markets Law, for a total of 17 candidates.

  • More specifically, the List confirms 4 of the names currently serving on the Board of Directors and proposes 9 new candidates (in addition to the further 4 required by the above-mentioned increase). Accordingly, the list of 13 members is composed of approximately 70% new candidates, envisaging a substantial renewal of the management body - both quantitatively and qualitatively.

  • Gender balance: the least represented gender is granted a representation on the List exceeding the minimum threshold provided for by the applicable laws and regulations.

  • Confirmation of the CEO, as a sign of continuity in the Bank's strategy.

  • For the role of Chairman, the List proposes a candidate who previously served (until 27 April 2023) as Deputy Chairman of FinecoBank's Board of Directors, in order to ensure - given the significant number of directors serving their first term and the exceptional and unprecedented nature of the current phase, as this renewal represents the first application of the rules introduced by the Capital Markets Law - the presence of a Chairman with in-depth knowledge of the company's business, thereby fostering operational continuity of the Board and greater effectiveness in the work of its members.

  • High-standing profiles with appropriate professional, managerial and business management skills, including ICT & Security, Risk and ESG expertise, in line with the recommendations set out in the Qualitative and Quantitative Profile of the Board of Directors.

    INDEPENDENCE

  • High level of independence (92%), higher than the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code for listed companies.
