At a general meeting on Thursday, shareholders approved the increase in Luca De Meo’s remuneration, which could reach 5.53 million euros annually. However, 27.87% of shareholders voted against the resolution on his salary. The consulting firm Proxinvest recommended opposing it, similar to the stance it took on Carlos Tavares at Stellantis.

Renault management defended the increased remuneration as necessary to ensure Luca De Meo’s competitiveness compared to other companies in the automobile and related sectors.
