2. Management Board

The table below presents a review of compensation of PZU SA Management Board Members for 2022. The table includes persons discharging functions in the Company's Management Board for a part of or the entire reporting period. Pursuant to the Compensation Policy in force at PZU SA, the compensation of the Management Board Members is presented split out into the fixed part and the variable part. The table distinguishes between the value of fixed compensation paid in 2022 and the value of additional benefits received by the Management Board Members, broken down into training and other benefits, either pecuniary or non-pecuniary.

The status of the PZU Group as the only financial conglomerate (made up of insurance undertakings, banks, mutual and pension funds as well as companies operating in diverse areas of the economy and in international markets) obligates it to manage its assets correctly and effectively. Furthermore, the status of a public company significant for the Polish economy and the financial market translates into the Management Board Members' duty to continue to improve their knowledge and qualifications pertaining to the business activity of the Company and the whole PZU Group. For this reason, the Company finances its management's participation in domestic and foreign training courses, achieving in practice a direct advantage from expended funds through having highly-qualified management staff, which as a result serves the achievement of the objectives set by the Supervisory Board in the conditions of strong competition and the unfavorable investment environment. The financing also increases the trust of existing shareholders and enables the acquisition of new ones, both in Poland and abroad. It also serves the implementation of the principles of adequacy defined by legal regulations and expectations of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority.

Apart from fixed compensation, the list below includes the amount of variable compensation disbursed in 2022, with a breakdown into deferred and non-deferred variable compensation. Detailed rules for setting the amount of variable compensation are described more extensively in sections 4 and 5 of the report. When setting the amount of variable compensation due for 2022, taken into consideration was the level of achievement of management objectives, including:

  1. improvement of economic and financial ratios, such as: financial result attributed to the parent company, return on equity (ROE),
  2. taking activities taking into consideration social interests, including such that make the Company contribute to environmental protection,
  3. increase in the value of the Group, i.e. the degree of attainment of the key metrics set forth in the PZU Group Strategy describing the value of the PZU Group, including: net financial result of the banking segment attributed to the PZU Group, revenues of PZU Zdrowie SA, the PZU Group's share in the market of non-life insurance, operating margin of group and individually continued insurance.

The Company finances a pension scheme only for its employees, therefore it does not grant Management Board Members or Supervisory Board Members any pension packages.
