Awaiting Silvio Berlusconi's will, the first shareholders' meeting and board meeting of Fininvest, the Berlusconi family holding company, was held after the death of the former Prime Minister. It was a day of confirmations in the name of continuity: Marina Berlusconi remains chairman, the board of directors is unchanged and has been renewed for another year, with Danilo Pellegrino still as its CEO , and a 100 million euro dividend confirmed. However, Silvio Berlusconi's latest wishes could go to redrawing the shares of the holding company, which also includes about half of Mfe-Mediaset and 30 percent of Banca Mediolanum. A date for the opening of the will has not yet been set: the desire to hold the shareholders' meeting earlier is therefore confirmed, so as to avoid controversy during this delicate phase of the company and ensure an orderly transition.
