Eligibility Committee evaluates names for Petrobras’ board of directors

The Petrobras Eligibility Committee meets this Thursday (7th) to evaluate the curriculum of part of the government’s nominees for the state-owned company’s board of directors.

This staggered analysis may further postpone the holding of a new shareholders’ meeting to ratify the reformulation of the collegiate.

Of the eight nominees, according to sources, that of Jonathas Assunção Salvador Nery de Castro, number two in the Civil House, is considered the “most critical” case, as he holds a position considered political.

Both the State-Owned Companies Law and Petrobras’ internal policy prohibit holders of political positions on the boards of mixed capital and publicly traded companies.

Another name that could cause problems, if analyzed from the point of view of governance, is that of the Attorney General of Finance, Ricardo Soriano de Alencar, due to a conflict of interests, since he defends the Union in tax disputes against the state-owned company. . The expectation is that the two names will not be evaluated today.

The information is from the newspaper. The State of São Paulo.
