Board of Directors: co-option of a woman Director

During its session on 30 July 2025, the Societe Generale Board of Directors resolved to co-opt Ms. Laura BARLOW as a Director, effective 1 September 2025. The General Meeting of 27 May 2026 will be convened to ratify this appointment.

This appointment follows the resignation of Ms. Béatrice COSSA-DUMURGIER, whose term was due to expire in 2026.

Ms. Laura BARLOW has held significant positions as a banker within NatWest Group (formerly known as RBS) and Barclays, notably as Head of Restructuring and Sustainability.

Ms. Laura BARLOW, a British national, left from her executive position as Head of Sustainability at Barclays in March 2025 to focus on a career as a director. 

She has over three decades of experience in financial services and consulting, including strategic transformation, risk management, and sustainability, notably as Head of Large Corporate and Institutional Banking at NatWest and interim Group Chief risk officer at RBS, following 20 years of consulting for multinational companies.

She has made the regulatory declarations regarding the absence of conflicts of interest and absence of convictions as stated on page 140 of the Universal Registration Document filed by Societe Generale with the French Financial Markets Authority (Autorité des Marchés Financiers – AMF) under number D.25-0088 on 12 March 2025.
