Francesco Milleri also appointed president of Delfin
It was easy to understand that the opening of the will of Leonardo Del Vecchio it would have been a real watershed in this already complex economic season. Meanwhile, for the surprise of the inclusion in the family safe, the Delfin, also of his son Rocco Basilicowith a consequent reduction in the share allocated to his wife Nicoletta Zampillo. Then, because from today Francesco Milleri is the president of the holding, while Romolo Bardin remains at the helm with operational powers. However, it is clear that there is a sort of rebalancing of powers in favor of Milleri. As long as Del Vecchio remained alive, in fact, he was “only” CEO of EssilorLuxotticawhile Bardin it was at the same time CEO of Delfin and director of the Italian-French eyewear giant.
Now, however, the assets are changing. Milleri is at the same time president and CEO of Luxottica and president of Delfin. While Bardin remains with the shorter straw. TOwe had predicted on Affari that the real busillis would be who, between the shy CEO of the family safe and the volcanic number one of the eyewear company he would have prevailed. The bookmakers, who often make mistakes, had this time right when they had “Sensed” that Del Vecchio would have preferred Milleri. On the other hand, there was greater proximity of viewsof intentions, of peculiarities between these two than between Bardin, a manager with a solid cursus honorum and studied at the table to become number one.
The statement of Milleri it is also the viaticum for a renewed season of “conquest” over Italian capitalism. For a quarter of a century, in fact, the relationships between Mediobanca And Del Vecchio were of mutual respect. The living room in Milan was interested in having such a liquid industrialist remain in its capital; the “Scrooge” of Agordo wanted to sit in the places matter. But then, on the advice of Milleri, something broke and Del Vecchio went to the fight in Piazzetta Cucciatrying the climb – stopped by the ECB – and trying, in tandem with Caltagirone, to also take General. Tension further increased by the Ieo-Monzino affair, with the offer of 500 million by the patron from Luxottica returned to the sender by Mediobanca.
And Bardin? The CEO of Delfin he fiercely fought the game of Generali, resigning from the board of directors of Trieste in January of this year. He was the go-to man of Del Vecchio on the board of the Lion. An old Del who, since the days of Giovanni Perissinotto, has never spared criticism of the work of top management. His idea was clear: to do General a European champion of the insurance world, with operations of BUT that they would bring his 10% to dilute, but to take off the value of its participation. A dream destined to remain so? Who knows what they will want Do the eight heirs of the entrepreneur with the various shares of the membersty. It will probably be Milleri, increasingly plenipotentiary, to decide the fate of a safe that is worth over 30 billion.
