(ANSA) - Milan, February 6 - Newly-appointed Telecom Italia
president Aldo Minucci says he will probably stay at the helm
for a limited three-month period to act as a guarantor for
investors before stepping aside to make way for a more
independent leader.
"I will be president for three months acting as a guarantor
for all," Minucci said in an interview with business and finance
news site Firstonline.
"After the shareholders meeting it is improbable that I
stay on, since there is the need for a more independent
personality".
The next shareholders meeting is in April.
Minucci went on to say that the decision to step aside is a
natural extension of the work he has done to date as caretaker
of the company since the former chief, Franco Bernabè stepped
down.
He went on to add that he saw his main role as being that
of president of Ania, Italy's insurance company association, at
least until the end of this year when his mandate expires.
"It is a job that requires great commitment because the
insurance sector as well in this period is going through great
turbulence".
