1 The official Portuguese text published in the Official Gazette should be consulted herewith CMVM CMVM Regulation No. 1/2007 Corporate Governance (Amendment to CMVM Regulation No. 7/2001) Corporate Governance has recently undergone a considerable amount of regulatory evolution. CMVM Regulation No. 7/2001 promoted part of the CMVM Recommendations on Corporate Governance to disclosure duties and now obliges issuers of shares admitted to trading on a regulated market, domiciled or operating in Portugal and subject to Portuguese personal law, to disclose their level of acceptance based on a comply and explain model. The biennial text revision of the CMVM Recommendations on Corporate Governance brought on consecutive amendments to CMVM Regulations Nos. 11/2003, 10/2005 and 3/2006 so that the national recommendatory and regulatory framework could adequately accommodate the regulatory standards of relevant approved texts such as the EC Recommendation on Auditor Independence, the EC Action Plan on Corporate Law, the EC Recommendation on the Role of Non-Executive Directors, the EC Recommendation on Director Remuneration and the Revision of the OECD Principles on Corporate Governance. Other interim developments imposed further review of the regulatory framework on corporate governance, with particular emphasis placed on the amendments introduced to the Commercial Companies Code by Decree-Law 76-A/2006 of 29 March regarding issues on the governance structure of public limited companies and the enshrinement of its Article 245-A in the Securities Code within the ambit of transposing the Takeover Bid Directive. In view of the above, the adoption of the current regulation is ongoing. Transparency duties incumbent on the company and the information duties by the relevant board members remain unchanged except for the contents of the corporate governance report. As to the current alterations that have been introduced, attention is drawn to the amendments made to the report s arrangement which concerns the corporate structure and practice to be disclosed by issuers of shares admitted to trading on a regulated market and subject to Portuguese personal law, so that the report s contents are aligned with the new recommendations that are currently covered in the Corporate Governance Code. Again, emphasis is given to the key instruction regarding the way in which the report is to be drawn up: the report is not to be prepared as a casual exercise, but rather as an input of opinions and standpoints on sound corporate governance practices.
2 In all, the regulatory independency concept has been done away with. One of the legislator s concerns when revising the Commercial Companies Code (CCC), was the increased independence of corporate bodies that supervise the company s day-to-day activities. In consideration of the latter, the list of incompatibilities provided for in article 414/A of the CCC was inserted and an independency concept was encompassed in article 414/5 of the CCC. Depending on the selected governance model, these rules apply to the Supervisory Board members, non-executive Directors of the Audit Board, the General and Supervisory Board members and the Financial Matters Committee members in face of this, the regulatory independency concept no longer stands to reason. Reference to the independency of non-executive directors that are not directly covered by the provisions of the CCC, are now mentioned in articles 414/A and 414/5 of the CCC, which affords system consistency, as is required in this Regulation s Attachment under number II.9 of Chapter II. The current Regulation obliges individual disclosure of the amounts payable should the duties cease during the respective mandate, regardless of its nature, whenever they surpass the monthly salary by twofold. One aims to encourage the control on the more relevant remuneration transfers which is consistent with thorough transparency requirements. The draft regulation was made available for public consultation. Under the provided for in article 319 of the Securities Code, the opinion of the CMVM s Advisory Board was sought and the Executive Board of the CMVM approved the following regulation: Article 1 Report on Corporate Governance Structure and Practices 1.
