The article deals with the self-evaluation of the board pursuant to Article 4 of the Italian Corporate Governance Code, in order to focus on the function it performs and the main problems it arises. First, the paper briefly summarizes the approaches to the problem followed by corporate governance codes in some other jurisdictions, with purpose of showing similarities and differences with the Italian solution. The analysis proceeds with examining the provision of Article 4 of the Italian Corporate Governance Code in detail. Finally, the study outlines some of the consequences that the actual self-assessment carried out by the board may carry under Italian corporate law, suggesting that the specific outcomes of the board self-evaluation may become relevant for the purpose of its removal by the shareholders’ general meeting as well as within the judicial review of the directors’ conduct.
Nell’articolo si affronta il tema dell’autovalutazione dell’organo gestorio, al fine di soffermarsi sulla funzione che assolve e sui principali problemi che pone. Preliminarmente, si delinea in modo sintetico il quadro delle esperienze di altri ordinamenti giuridici, tentando di enucleare le tendenze comuni, gli elementi di difformità e il maggiore o minor grado di dettaglio delle regole dettate da ciascuno dei sistemi esaminati. Si focalizza poi l’attenzione sulla previsione che assume rilievo ai fini dell’analisi: l’art. 4 del Codice di Corporate Governance di Borsa Italiana. Infine, si esaminano alcune delle possibili conseguenze che derivano dall’autovalutazione dell’organo gestorio, ritenendo opportuno dare un rilievo concreto dei relativi esiti come metro di giudizio sull’operato degli amministratori.

Abstract
The article deals with the self-evaluation of the board pursuant to Article 4 of the Italian Corporate Governance Code, in order to focus on the function it performs and the main problems it arises. First, the paper briefly summarizes the approaches to the problem followed by corporate governance codes in some other jurisdictions, with purpose of showing similarities and differences with the Italian solution. The analysis proceeds with examining the provision of Article 4 of the Italian Corporate Governance Code in detail. Finally, the study outlines some of the consequences that the actual self-assessment carried out by the board may carry under Italian corporate law, suggesting that the specific outcomes of the board self-evaluation may become relevant for the purpose of its removal by the shareholders’ general meeting as well as within the judicial review of the directors’ conduct.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
