Corporate Governance

The statutory auditing of accounts is entrusted, in accordance with the law, to an independent Auditing Firm. This task is assigned by the Shareholders’ Meeting, following a reasoned proposal by the Board of Statutory Auditors, with particular reference to the following activities:

• audit of the Separate Financial Statements of Leonardo;
• audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Leonardo Group;
• limited audit of the Consolidated half-year Financial Report of the Leonardo Group;
• periodic assessment of the regular keeping of the corporate accounts.

The Shareholders' Meeting on May 20, 2020 resolved the assignment of the audit task for the nine-year period 2021-2029 to EY S.p.A.

Leonardo has long adopted, in accordance with applicable law and self-regulatory provisions, specific internal procedures in order to ensure the highest level of fairness in the management of corporate information and transparency towards the market.

Following the entry into force, on 3 July 2016, of the European Regulation about Market Abuse set out in Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014, the regulatory framework has undergone significant changes that the Company has appropriately transferred – also in light of the national legal framework currently in force –  in its internal rules regarding the treatment of Inside information, as well as the provisions about Internal dealing and market-related communications.
