The state voted against the remuneration report for 2021 at the annual general meeting in 2022, with an explanation of vote recorded in the minutes. NFD notes the company's comments to the State's explanation of vote, but also views that the remuneration report for 2022 has not sufficient information to assess the variable remuneration scheme, including whether the variable remuneration provides incentives and is genuinely variable. Inter alia on this basis, NFD is voting against the remuneration report for 2022.
