Xavier Huillard Qatar Holding LLC and Abdullah Hamad Al Attiyah |
Mr Huillard is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VINCI. Qatar Holding LLC, a company controlled by Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), directly and indirectly holds a 3.8% stake in VINCI. It should be noted that this shareholding had been acquired originally by Qatari Diar Real Estate Investment Company (QD), also controlled by QIA, when the Cegelec group was sold to VINCI. At the time of the sale, it was agreed that QD, which then had a 5.3% stake, would be represented on the Board as long as it held at least 5% of the shares. QD sold its stake to Qatar Holding LLC in February 2015. As a result of the disposal of a block of shares in October 2015, Qatar Holding LLC’s stake was reduced to 3.9%. It should also be noted that QD and VINCI Construction Grands Projets (a wholly owned subsidiary of VINCI) are partners in the jointly owned QDVC. QD owns 51% of the capital of QDVC and VINCI Construction Grands Projets has a minority stake of 49% in this company, which it accounts for under the equity method. Given that both Qatar Holding LLC and QD are owned by a sovereign wealth fund, the Board has decided that the former should be considered independent. On 6 December 2018, Qatar Holding LLC appointed Abdullah Hamad Al Attiyah as its permanent representative to VINCI’s Board of Directors. The Board has reviewed the situation of Mr Al Attiyah, who serves as QD’s Chief Executive Officer, and has concluded that he qualifies as independent. |
