About Pasqualino Monti

Pasqualino Monti, chief executive officer of ENAV, stated in a June 2024 interview that the company had paid the highest dividend in its history and was changing its dividend policy to improve returns for investors. He described ENAV as the most efficient air navigation service provider in Europe, based on numerical testing, and said the company was focused on its core business while also investing in technology and digital innovation. Monti noted that traffic volumes in 2023 were the highest in ENAV's history and that Eurocontrol forecasts indicated further increases for 2024. In earlier roles, Monti served as president of the Western Sicilian Sea Port System Authority and as extraordinary commissioner for the relaunch of shipbuilding in Palermo. He said he was appointed by then-Prime Minister Mario Draghi as commissioner to secure a 150,000-ton dry dock that would allow Fincantieri to build five cruise ships of 170 meters each in Palermo, describing the project as crucial for rebuilding the supply chain. Monti also stated that the port system in western Sicily had quadrupled its roll-on/roll-off volumes between 2014 and 2019 and had consolidated growth in cruise traffic. He received honorary citizenship from the city of Palermo in July 2022, during which he said the merit for the port's redevelopment should be attributed to all institutions, not just one person.

I am, how to say, honored and proud to achieve this important efficiency. I am proud that it is you who grant it, because I remember perfectly 2017, at the end of 2017, when you saw in your office in Niscemi and Count agreed on this important action that then became, transformed over time into a beautiful revolution. Being from Palermo, it's three and a half years now, so I am happy that this feeling of mine today, with heart and I repeat a big applause, is confirmed.
I also want to thank you, Verde, for the contribution, for the support that you have always given me. I have said it in every forum, however, when I am invited, I remind everyone that in the moments when we start and complete the redevelopment of an entire complex like Sicily, the wonderful land with Sicily a beautiful city, Palermo, the credit cannot be attributed to just one person, but it is the contribution, let's say, as the rear admiral also said, it was the contribution of all institutions. Your role has been fundamental, it was fundamental to bring me here, who was fundamental in Palermo during the path we started. I want to absolutely thank you as a Palermitan in this case, and I am here also to renew my personal commitment to the team that today includes the presidency, without which clearly I would not have done, we have not done what is under everyone's eyes. So to them goes my heartfelt thanks, because objectively without work, strength, emulation, their sharing of a project, today we would not be here to tell something, something beautiful, something that clearly moves us closely. I am grateful to all institutions and I am certainly grateful to my colleagues. Thank you.
