All the hands of Caltagirone in Generali, Enel and Anima

Not just Enel. That's why Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone can gloat.

Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone is ringing successes between large companies and the world of finance.

Figures close to the builder and financier are on the command deck of Acea (Fabrizio Palermo), Anima (Fabio Corsico) and, shortly after, Enel (Flavio Cattaneo).

In some way, all these figures have played a role in the recent battle over Generali (where, moreover, Caltagirone can now count on the president of the Leone board of statutory auditors, Carlo Schiavone, of the very prestigious Melpignano firm – of the historic Apulian family close to the DC left in the First Republic ; Stefano Melpignano was also at the top of IRI-Italstat – which has been supporting the Roman publisher for some time in all legal and tax affairs).

It was said of key figures considered close to Caltagirone in the recent battle over the Generali.

Fabrizio Palermo, former number one of Cassa depositi e prestiti, now company head of the Acea group, worked on the "Reawakening the Lion" industrial plan, Corsico managed communication and institutional relations for his part (effectively whispering to reporters and newspaper editors ), and Flavio Cattaneo joined the board of directors of Assicurazioni Generali. As for Del Fante (reconfirmed managing director of Poste Italiane), it is widely believed that he was the real candidate for managing director of Caltagirone for Generali, long before Cirinnà came out of the cylinder of Caltagirone, and the tight pact was noted (with the green light from the Ministry of Economy) between Poste and Caltagirone on Anima (Corsico was elected on the board of the asset management company).

Well: in the Enel affair Caltagironians of different nuances are distributed across the board, being able to have their say in the Assogestioni house, where Anima and Poste weigh a lot, while Cattaneo is the leading name on the government list for the next Enel board of directors.

But in doing so, don't the boundaries between the government list and Assogestioni blur too much, which should instead ensure a safeguard of independence?
