Shareholders

Municipalities and their percentage of shares

We are connected with and focused on society. Together with our customers, shareholders and partners we are working towards a more sustainable society. With the support of 61 Dutch municipalities, two provinces and the Dutch State as its shareholders, Stedin Group is able to concentrate on achieving its strategy.

The Shareholders’ Committee consists of nine members representing all of Stedin’s 64 shareholders. The Shareholders’ Committee members are the municipalities of Rotterdam, The Hague, Dordrecht, Delft, Lansingerland,  Molenlanden, Achtkarspelen, Nissewaard and Uithoorn, the provinces Utrecht and Zeeland and the Dutch State.

General Meeting of Shareholders

Within six months after the close of each financial year, Stedin Holding N.V. organises an annual general meeting. Additional general meetings may be held if deemed necessary by the supervisory board or the board of management. The agenda for the annual general meeting is set by the board of management and the supervisory board. During the annual general meeting, the annual report is discussed and the financial statements are adopted. The appointment of supervisory board members also takes place at the annual general meeting.

Agreements have been made by Stedin’s board of management, supervisory board and annual general meeting regarding the interrelationships between these bodies and about performing and exercising their tasks and powers. These agreements are laid down in the articles of association of Stedin Holding and the 'shareholders covenant of Stedin Group (Dutch only)'. The shareholders’ committee also has its own regulation (Dutch only). All shareholders are represented by the shareholders’ committee. The shareholders’ committee regulation only applies to the interrelation between shareholders.
