of
the
remuneration
system
for
identified
staff
The principles established by the Remuneration Policy are the pillars used to define the remuneration systems. Fineco's
approach to remuneration, consistent with the legislation and best market practices, ensures the link to performance,
external context and market practices, business strategies and long-term interests of shareholders.
Notably, the Remuneration Policy aims to define incentive systems consistent with corporate values and objectives
(including those that take into account environmental, social and governance factors), with company results and with an
effective risk management in line with the reference framework for determining the risk appetite and with capital and
liquidity levels.
Appropriate remuneration and incentive mechanisms strive to support the creation of a working environment that is
inclusive of any form of diversity and capable of encouraging the expression of individual potential, attracting, retaining
and motivating highly qualified resources.
In line with our remuneration governance model characterized by clarity, reliability and transparency in the decision
making processes, the Remuneration Policy is drawn up by the Human Resources function, with the involvement of
the other company functions based on the area of expertise and evaluated by the Compliance and Risk Management
function before being submitted to the Remuneration Committee.
The Remuneration Policy, upon proposal of the Remuneration Committee, is submitted annually to the Board of Directors
and subsequently to the Shareholders' Meeting for approval, in line with regulatory requirements.
Information on the criteria used for performance measurement and ex ante and ex post risk adjustment.
The link between profitability, risk and remuneration is guaranteed by directly linking the bonus pool with company
results and relevant risk profiles as defined in the reference framework for determining the risk appetite.
Notably, specific entry conditions are defined, which act as ex-ante risk adjustment mechanisms and assess the Group's
performance in terms of profitability, capital and liquidity.
Only if all entry conditions are met, the bonus pool is confirmed with the possibility of applying further adjustments based
on the overall assessment of the risk factors included in the risk-weighting mechanism "CRO dashboard". The CRO
dashboard includes specific risk indicators of the Risk Appetite Framework (this process also applies to the definition of
the bonus pool for Financial Advisors ).
Once the bonus pool is defined, individual bonuses are determined within the annual performance appraisal process,
based on the principles of transparency and clarity to ensure a direct link between variable remuneration and
performance.
The variable remuneration awarded or paid is subject to ex-post risk adjustment mechanisms (malus and claw back
respectively) that take into account, among others, individual behavior.
Notably, these measures make it possible to reduce, cancel or request the return of any form of variable remuneration.
For more details, please refer to the Focus on "Compliance breach, individual malus and claw back" in Section I
paragraph 2.5.3 of the 2024 Remuneration Policy.
Whether the management body or the remuneration committee where established reviewed the institution's
remuneration policy during the past year, and if so, an overview of any changes that were made, the reasons for
those changes and their impact on remuneration.
In 2024, the Remuneration Committee reviewed the 2023 Remuneration Policy making appropriate changes to further
align with market practices and the expectations and indications of investors and proxy advisors.
The following are the main changes introduced compared to 2023:
• With the aim to incentivize, motivate and retain selected employees and to align the interests of the Group's
management with the long-term value creation for shareholders, a share-based Long Term Incentive Plan has been
introduced for the three-year performance period 2024-2026. The Plan sets financial and sustainability performance
goals linked to the 2024-2026 MYP and provides for the payment of a bonus in shares over a multi-year period for
the three-year performance period 2024-2026.
• With regard to the 2024 Short-Term Incentive System for Employees, new sustainability parameters have been set out
in the scorecard of the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and other Identified Staff, within the "Stakeholder
Value" macro-category, in line with the KPIs and targets of the 2024-2026 ESG MYP. In addition, starting in 2024,
the "Tone from the top" goal has been integrated with reference to the contribution to the promotion of sustainability
initiatives and behaviors within the organization. Furthermore, in the 2024 Incentive System for Financial Advisors,
specific sustainability targets have been introduced relating to the percentage of assets held in funds and sicavs
pursuant to Articles 8 and 9 of Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 (SFDR) and to the recruitment of financial advisors of the
least represented gender.
• As part of the Group's commitment to ensuring the Remuneration Policy is gender neutral, specific objectives relating
to the improvement of the Gender Equity Pay Gap and Gender Balance in line with the 2024-2026 ESG MYP have
been included in the 2024-2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan.
• The weight of each financial and non-financial objective in relation to the overall performance appraisal is reported
in the 2024 Chief Executive Officer and General Manager Scorecard. It's worth mentioning the new sustainability
objectives, in alignment with the 2024-2026 ESG MYP, for which measurable targets have been set ex-ante in order
to ensure an objective and transparent evaluation.

Information of how the institution ensures that staff in internal control functions are remunerated independently
of the businesses they oversee.
In order to guarantee the independence of the corporate control functions (Internal Audit, Compliance, Risk Management,
Anti-Money Laundering) from the results of the areas they monitor and to minimize potential conflicts of interest, no
economic objectives or objectives linked to the economic results of the monitored areas are assigned. The individual
objectives for the employees of these functions primarily reflect the performance of their own function.
Additionally, the variable remuneration of Identified Staff of the Company Control Functions cannot exceed 1/3 of the
fixed remuneration in line with the applicable regulatory framework and the incentive systems reflect the nature of their
responsibilities and consistent with market practices.
In order to adequately remunerate qualified and expert personnel in these functions, ensuring competitiveness in terms
of total compensation, the Identified staff belonging to the corporate control functions benefit from a specific "Role
based allowance" on the basis of the global band title. Role-Based Allowances (RBA) are considered fixed remuneration,
in line with regulatory provisions and market practices.
From a governance point of view, the Remuneration Committee directly supervises the remuneration of all Identified
Staff belonging to the corporate control functions, regardless of their global band title. In addition, the Corporate Bodies
Regulation provides that the Risk and Related Parties Committee is involved in setting and evaluating performance goals
and in defining the overall remuneration of the Heads of corporate control functions.
Goals linked to economic results are also avoided for the Head of Human Resources and the Manager in charge of
financial statements, whose remuneration is predominantly fixed.
For the Identified Staff belonging to the Control Functions, Human Resources and Manager in Charge, any implications
on the annual bonus of the application of the Zero Factor clause, which is activated in the event of failure to achieve at
least one of the access conditions, are assessed by the Board of Directors, considering their independence from the
economic results of the areas under their control.
Policies and criteria applied for the award of guaranteed variable remuneration and severance payments.
The other forms of remuneration are subject to an-hoc decision-making process through the involvement of the relevant
functions and, where required, the corporate bodies.
Welcome bonus and retention bonus are considered variable remuneration and are limited only to exceptional situations
or related to hiring, the need to attract the best competencies from the market, the launch of special projects, high risk
of leaving for critical/strategic employees/roles, in line with the market practices. Bonuses linked to the hiring of new
staff cannot be paid more than once to the same person, neither by the bank nor by any other company of the banking
group and contribute to the determination of the limit to the ratio between fixed and variable remuneration of the first
year, unless it is paid as a lump sum upon hiring.
Retention bonuses, in accordance with Bank of Italy Circular No. 285 of 2013, may be paid to staff by reason of their
remaining in service for a predetermined period of time or until a specified event, and are paid not earlier than the
end of the retention period or the occurrence of the event. These forms of remuneration, awarded in compliance with
regulations in force and the governance processes of the Group, are not a common practice for Identified Staff.
The other forms of remuneration are granted in compliance with the regulations in force and are defined in line with the
governance processes of FinecoBank S.p.A. and FinecoBank Group.
All remuneration classified as variable remuneration is subject to the applicable rules (e.g. cap on the ratio between
variable and fix remuneration, deferral) as well as to malus conditions and claw-back actions, as legally enforceable.
These components are taken into account as retention measures in the Resolution Plan adopted by the Group in line
with the Single Resolution Board's Operational Guidance for Operational Continuity in Resolution.
With reference to severance pay, the Shareholders' Meeting of 10 April 2019 approved the Termination Payments Policy
(so-called "Severance"), incorporating the regulatory provisions of the Circular no. 285/ 2013 of the Bank of Italy, and
in particular the provisions regarding the amounts agreed in view of or on the occasion of the early termination of the
employment relationship.
c) Description of the
ways in which current
and
future
risks
are
taken into account in the
remuneration processes.
For more details, refer to Section I paragraph 3.2.4 of the 2024 Remuneration Policy.
As described in point b), the link between risk and remuneration is guaranteed by directly linking the bonus pool with the
relevant risk profiles as defined in the reference framework for determining the risk appetite.
The entry conditions for 2024 are the following: Net Operating Profit adjusted >0, Net Profit >0, CET1 Ratio >10.7%,
Liquidity Coverage Ratio >150%, Net Stable Funding Ratio >125%.
Notably, only if all entry conditions are met, the bonus pool is confirmed with the possibility of applying further adjustments
(as a multiplier) based on the overall assessment of the risk factors included in the "CRO dashboard".
The CRO dashboard is risk-adjustment mechanism that includes specific risk indicators taken from the Risk Appetite
Framework connected to capital, liquidity, risk & return, Credit, Interest Rate Risk on Banking Book, Operational risk, such
as LCR, EL stock, EV Sensitivity, ROAC etc.
The Risk Management function performs the CRO Dashboard evaluation, on the basis of a specific methodology
approved by the Board of Directors, resulting in a multiplier of the bonus pool according to a negative (50% and 75%),
neutral (100%) or positive (110% and 120%) range (the risk-adjustment mechanism applies also to the bonus pool for
financial advisors with a correction range from 50% to 125%).
The opportunity to award an extra performance in the bonus pool can only be granted in case of positive EVA at the
end of the financial year.
For more details, refer to Section I paragraph 4.2 and 4.3 of the 2024 Remuneration Policy.
d) The ratios between
fixed
and
variable
remuneration
set
in
accordance with point (g)
of Article 94(1) CRD.
In compliance with the applicable regulatory provisions, the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of FinecoBank established
a maximum ratio between the variable and fixed component of the remuneration equal to 2:1 for employees belonging
to the business functions.
For the rest of the employees, a maximum ratio equal to 1:1 is usually adopted (the variable component, if present, is
limited for all the personnel of the corporate control functions and of the human resources function).
The variable remuneration of Identified Staff in company control functions cannot exceed 1/3 of the fixed remuneration.
The remuneration is predominantly fixed for the Head of Human Resources and the Manager in charge of financial
statements.
In line with the applicable regulations, for Financial Advisors belonging to Identified Staff, a 2:1 ratio is applied between
the non-recurring and the recurring component of the remuneration.
The adoption of a ratio of 2:1 between variable and fixed compensation does not have any implication on the Bank's
capacity to continue to respect all prudential rules, in particular capital requirements.

period with levels of re
muneration.
Entry conditions for 2024 take into consideration, in fact, the following corporate performance indicators: Net Operating
Profit adjusted, Net Profit, CET1 Ratio, Liquidity Coverage Ratio, Net Stable Funding Ratio (for the definitions, refer to
Section I, paragraph 4.2 of the 2024 Remuneration Policy).
The achievement of all entry conditions allows to confirm the bonus pool defined in the budget phase by applying the
"funding rate", a percentage of the Net Operating Profit (net of Provisions for Risk and Charges, corresponding to Profit
Before Tax), and taking into consideration historical data analysis, expected profitability, business strategy and previous
year pool.
Further adjustments to the bonus pool can be applied on the basis of the overall assessment of the risk factors included
in the so-called "CRO dashboard (as described in point c).
For the subsidiary Fineco Asset Management DAC, additional entry conditions are envisaged at local level, which reflect
the specific nature of the business, as well as other performance and risk adjustment parameters.
With regard to employees, individual bonuses are defined within the annual performance appraisal process, based on
the principles of transparency and clarity to ensure a direct link between variable remuneration and performance, taking
into consideration the internal benchmarking analysis based on the role and in compliance with the maximum ratio
between variable and fixed remuneration approved by the Shareholder's Meeting.
The annual performance appraisal process requires a goal-setting phase at the beginning of the year for all Identified
Staff. The individual goals are assigned through the Scorecard, which adequately balances economic-financial and
non-economic factors. Specifically, the 2024 Scorecard for Identified Staff provides for a minimum of 4 and maximum 6
goals that reflect the Bank and FinecoBank Group's strategy. The Scorecard includes 4-6 goals linked to the Multi-Year
Plan, to business objectives and/or to the role, with an overall weight of 80% on the Scorecard, and up to 2 sustainable
goals, defined as the ability to generate and sustain value for all stakeholders over the medium to long term, with a 20%
weight on the Scorecard.
For Company Control Functions, Human Resources department and the Manager in charge of financial statements, no
goals linked to economic results are assigned, in order to minimize potential conflicts of interest and be independent
from the results of the respective areas.
For the purposes of performance appraisal, the reference target and the level of achievement, according to predefined
evaluation scale, are defined for each quantitative objective. Qualitative objectives are evaluated based on specific
parameters determined ex-ante. Each quantitative and qualitative objective is evaluated on the basis of a 5-point
rating scale with a descriptive outcome (from "Below Expectations" to "Greatly Exceeds Expectations"), which drives
the definition of the individual bonus amount. Therefore, the overall performance is assessed from 'Below' to 'Greatly
Exceeds' on the basis of the weighted average of the values assigned to each goal, also taking into account additional
external context and/or market factors. In line with the principle of "pay for performance", the individual bonus is allocated
to beneficiaries based on the performance appraisal.
Additionally, individual behaviors (compliance with internal and external rules and regulations, absence of disciplinary
actions and completion of mandatory training) are also considered in order to award bonuses.
With regard to Financial Advisor Identified Staff, the performance assessment, is based on specific parameters (by way
of example, total net sales goal and total net sales under management goal, development activities, value generated by
the requalification of assets in liquidity and asset under custody in Guided Products etc.).
In order to award incentives individual behaviors (compliance with internal and external rules, Compliance rules
and Group's integrity values and regulations and absence of disciplinary actions) are also considered (compliance
assessment). In addition, to further strengthen compliance, a "Scoring" system is in place, consisting of an adjustment
mechanism resulting from the assessment of compliance indicators and quality of operations, relating to specific areas
such as MIFID, transparency, mandatory training, AML etc. This system is applied during the incentive period and can
lead to the revision of the amount of the accrued bonus.
An overview of how amounts of individual variable remuneration are linked to institution-wide and individual
performance.
Variable remuneration is linked to company performance, as described in the previous point related to the bonus pool,
the amount of which is directly proportional to the results achieved by the Bank.
Individual bonus amounts are defined within the annual performance appraisal process, based on the principles of
transparency and clarity to ensure a direct link between variable remuneration and performance.
Information on the criteria used to determine the balance between different types of instruments awarded
including shares, equivalent ownership interest, options and other instruments.
Bonus is delivered for Identified Staff through immediate (upfront) and deferred installments - in cash or in FinecoBank
ordinary shares - over a maximum 6-year period. No other financial instruments are currently envisaged.
In line with Circular no. 285/2013 of the Bank of Italy, at least 50% of the overall variable remuneration of Identified Staff
is paid in FinecoBank ordinary shares.
56% of the bonus for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and for other roles provided for by the law (such
as Deputy General Managers etc.) with significant variable remuneration is paid in shares. The share quota is equal to
55% for the roles provided by law with no significant variable remuneration.
Finally, for the other identified staff with no significant amount of total variable remuneration, the share component of the
variable remuneration is equal to 50%.
With reference to Financial Advisors, a balanced structure of payments in cash (50%) and shares (50%) was defined in
2024.

Information of the measures the institution will implement to adjust variable remuneration in the event that
performance metrics are weak, including the institution's criteria for determining "weak" performance metrics.
Specific entry conditions link the bonus pool to company performance, based on profitability, capital and liquidity
indicators.
The bonus pool is confirmed only if all entry conditions are met.
If even one entry condition is not met, the Zero Factor clause is applied to the Identified Staff thus zeroing out the bonus
pool for the reference year while previous systems deferrals could be reduced from 50% to 100% of their value, based
on final actual results.
For the rest of the population a significant reduction will be applied. It is understood that the BoD can allocate part of the
pool for retention purposes or to ensure the competitiveness on the market.
For the Identified Staff belonging to the Control Functions, Human Resources and Manager in Charge of the Financial
Statements, the implications on the annual bonus of the application of the Zero Factor will be specifically assessed by
the Board of Directors, considering their independence with respect to the economic results of the areas subject to
their control.

Bonus is delivered through immediate (upfront) and deferred installments - in cash or in FinecoBank ordinary shares -
over a maximum 6-year period. The payment structure has been defined in line with Bank of Italy provisions requiring a
retention period for both upfront and deferred shares.
The 2024 payment schemes are based on two time horizons (5 and 6 total years) differentiated on the basis of the target
population and of the total amount of variable remuneration awarded for the performance year.
For the CEO and GM and other roles provided by law with a significant amount of total variable remuneration in the per
formance year 2024 (≥ 435,000 €) a 5-year deferral scheme applies with an overall payout structure of 6 years, with 60%
of bonus deferred. 56% of the variable remuneration is delivered in shares (of which 20% upfront and 36% deferred),
while 44% is paid in cash (of which 20% upfront and 24% deferred).
For the other roles provided by law with no significant amount of total variable remuneration (< 435,000 €) a 5-year
payout scheme applies with an overall payout structure of 6 years, with 50% of bonus deferred. 55% of the variable
remuneration is delivered in shares (of which 25% upfront and 30% deferred), while 45% is paid in cash (of which 25%
upfront and 20% deferred).
For the other identified staff with no significant amount of total variable remuneration a 4-year deferral scheme applies
with an overall payout structure of 5 years, with 40% of bonus deferred. 50% of the variable remuneration is delivered
in shares (of which 30% upfront and 20% deferred), and 50% is paid in cash (of which 30% upfront and 20% deferred).
No deferral is applied in the presence of an annual variable remuneration equal to or less than € 50,000 and equal to
or less than one third of the total annual remuneration.
Regarding Financial Advisors, for the Identified Staff with a significant amount of total variable remuneration a 4-year
deferral scheme applies with an overall payout structure of 5 years, with 60% of bonus deferred. 40% of the bonus is
deferred over a 4-year period for the Identified Staff with no significant amount of total variable remuneration.
In order to align the long-term interests of the Bank's Management with the long-term value creation for shareholders, a
share based long-term incentive plan for employees was launched. The Plan sets performance goals for the three-year
performance period 2024-2026 in terms of value creation, industrial sustainability, risk and stakeholder value (ESG), in
line with the 2024-2026 Multi Year Plan.
In particular, financial performance goals such as ROAC, Net Sales of AUM, Total Net Sales, Cost Income Ratio and Ope
rational Losses on Revenues have been set. Three ESG parameters have been identified with regard to Scope 1 and 2
(market-based) emissions reduction, the achievement of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion goals, and the enlargement of the
ESG product offering with article 8 e 9 SFDR funds.
The Plan provides for entry and malus conditions, claw-back conditions and a specific risk-adjustment mechanism.
The plan provides for the allocation of FinecoBank ordinary shares to be delivered in several instalments over a mul
ti-year period, defined according to the categories of beneficiaries and in line with applicable regulatory provisions.

if permitted by national law).
Malus and claw-back clauses may be activated in order to take into account individual behaviors in violation of external
regulations or internal codes adopted in the reference period in which the variable remuneration is accrued (malus and
claw back clauses apply also to Financial Advisors, compatibly with the specificity of their role).
The malus clause (i.e. the reduction/cancelation of the variable remuneration) can be activated to the variable
remuneration to be awarded or awarded but not already paid related to the performance period, which the compliance
"violation" is referred to.
The claw-back clause, (i.e. the return of all or part of the variable remuneration) can be activated with reference to
the overall variable remuneration already paid, awarded for the performance period which the "violation" is referred
to, without prejudice to more restrictive local laws or provisions and as legally enforceable, for a period up to 5 years
after each instalment (upfront or deferred) has become available to the beneficiary (that means after deferrals and/or
applicable holding period), even after the termination of the employment relationship.
Malus and claw-back can be activated in case the individual:
- has displayed conduct that does not comply with legal, regulatory or statutory provisions or with codes of ethics or
conduct applicable to the bank, in the cases envisaged by the latter;
has adopted further conduct that does not comply with legal, regulatory or statutory provisions or with codes of ethics or
conduct applicable to the bank, which resulted in a significant loss for the bank or for customers;
- has contributed with fraudulent behavior or gross negligence to incurring significant financial losses, or by his conduct
had a negative impact on the risk profile or on other regulatory requirements at Bank or FinecoBank Group level;
- has engaged in misconduct and/or fails to take expected actions which contributed to significant reputational harm to
the Bank or the FinecoBank Group, or which were subject to disciplinary procedures, included those still in progress, or
measures by the Authority;
- is the subject of disciplinary measures and initiatives envisaged in respect of fraudulent behavior or characterized by
gross negligence during the reference period;
- has infringed the requirements set out by articles 26 TUB and 53 TUB, where applicable, or the obligations regarding
remuneration and incentives.
Furthermore, malus and claw-back reflect the performance levels net of the risks assumed or actually achieved.
The entry conditions as described in point e) work as malus conditions for the deferrals of previous year's incentive
systems.

Executives, aiming to align interests of top management to those of shareholders by assuring appropriate levels of
personal investment in FinecoBank shares over time. Effective January 1st, 2023, the Board of Directors has increased
the share ownership requirements for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and the other Executives with
strategic responsibilities, respectively to 200% and to 100% of the fixed remuneration.
As a rule, the established levels described should be reached within 5 years from the first appointment in the covered
role or starting from January 1st, 2023, for those already holding the above positions, and they should be maintained for
