Report of the
Supervisory Board
Having fulfilled our supervisory role and using the information provided
by Van Dien+Co., auditors, who have reported on their audit and issued
their statement of approval, this Board has been able to draw up the
financial statements of 1984.
Included in these financial statements are the consolidated financial
statement of the financing business, the combined financial statements of
the real estate companies and other diversifications and the accompanying
explanatory notes, as shown on pages 30 and following of this annual
report.
We recommend that you approve the financial statements as presented in
this annual report.
In the course of the year under review Mr. A.W.J. Caron retired, as was
mentioned would occur in the annual report of last year.
Mr. A.G. van den Bos and Mr. J.C. Smit were reappointed as members of
the Board.
As of May 15,1985, the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders
both Mr. J. de Wilde, chairman of the Board, and Mr. P.M.H. van Boven
will resign due to the fact that both will have reached the statutory age
limit set for Board membership. In connection with this we have decided
to set the number of Supervisory Board members at six.
Mr. J.C. Smit will act as chairman. We moreover intend to appoint
Mr. L. van Dongen as member of the Board. The Employees Council was
consulted about this appointment, and raised no objections.
We would like to express our regrets at the retirement of Mr. G.J. Jansen,
member of the Managing Board who, after 48 years of employment, left
our company at the end of the year under review. We would like to thank
him for the way he, for so long, devoted so much time and knowledge to
our company. As of May 16,1984, Mr. W.A.J.M. van der Heijden was
appointed his successor.
In conclusion we would also like to express our appreciation for the way in
which Managing Board and employees have carried out their tasks during
the past year.
