Elliott Advisors (UK) Limited Statement on Telecom Italia

Europe, Italy, United Kingdom

10/04/2018 — MILAN & LONDON — (BUSINESS WIRE)

In its latest assault on shareholder rights, the Board of Telecom Italia, backed by its largest shareholder Vivendi, is now challenging the recent ruling by the Board of Statutory Auditors. Stakeholders should see this for what it is – another cynical attempt by Vivendi to avoid accountability and delay a shareholder vote.
