The Board of Directors of CaixaBank has resolved to propose to the Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting the re-election of Tomás Muniesa as a proprietary director, at the proposal of “la Caixa” Banking Foundation, for a four-year term. Tomás Muniesa has served as Chair of the Board since 2025.

It will likewise propose the appointment of Ana María García Fau as an independent director of CaixaBank for a four-year term, to fill the vacancy left by Amparo Moraleda Martínez, who has tendered her resignation as a director with effect from the conclusion of the forthcoming Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting, as twelve years will have elapsed since her initial appointment on April 2014.

At its meeting held today in Valencia, the Board also resolved to appoint Pablo Arturo Forero Calderón as a director by co-option, with the status of independent director, and to submit the ratification of his appointment to the next Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting. Until now, Pablo Arturo Forero Calderón had been classified as an “other external” director.

Furthermore, it has decided to propose to the General Meeting the re-election of Eduardo Javier Sanchiz as an independent director for a four-year term.

With these proposed appointments and re-elections, which will be submitted for approval at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 27 March, the Board of Directors of CaixaBank will maintain the same structure of 15 members, of whom 10 — representing 67% of the total — will be independent directors. Female directors will continue to account for 40% of the Board.

Following these proposals, the composition of the Board of Directors of CaixaBank would be as follows: Tomás Muniesa, Chairman of CaixaBank and proprietary director; Gonzalo Gortázar, CEO; independent directors Eduardo Javier Sanchiz Irazu, Luis Álvarez Satorre, María Verónica Fisas Vergés, Pablo Arturo Forero Calderón, Rosa María García Piñeiro, Cristina Garmendia Mendizábal, Peter Löscher, Bernardo Sánchez Incera, Koro Usarraga Unsain and Ana María García Fau; proprietary directors José María Méndez Álvarez-Cedrón and Teresa Santero Quintilla; and “other external” director Fernando María Costa Duarte Ulrich.
