Enhanced Executive And Employee Incentives

Alongside capital measures, the meeting addressed remuneration. Shareholders approved an allocation of €35.2 million from special reserves for employee compensation. A five-year programme was also introduced to distribute shares to eligible executives and employees of Eurobank and affiliated entities. In parallel, a revised variable remuneration framework allows selected senior executives to receive up to 200% of fixed pay.

Governance And Audit Oversight Reforms

Changes were also made at the board level. Alexandra Reich was appointed as an independent non-executive director, replacing Jawaid Mirza. Following this appointment, eight of the thirteen board members are classified as independent. Amendments to the articles of association introduce flexibility in board terms and allow partial renewals.
