Groupe Renault - 2019 Universal Registration Document

Message from Jean-Dominique Senard RENAULT PROFILE

In a context of a major global health crisis, Groupe Renault is fully committed to the collective efforts to fight against the epidemic. We are mobilized to ensure the safety of our employees and preserve the Group’s business. 2019 was a transition year for Groupe Renault. We have taken the time to restructure in order to better meet the challenges of the rapidly changing automotive sector. We carried out this transition in a context of economic uncertainty and market volatility which led us to reconsider our goals, in a spirit of responsibility and discernment. 2020 will be equally significant for Groupe Renault and the Alliance. Firstly, with the appointment of a new management team: from July 1, 2020, Luca de Meo will join the Group as Chief Executive Officer. Alongside him, Clotilde Delbos will take on the functions of Chief Operating Officer. Together, with support from a renewed and reinforced Executive Committee, they will form a high quality team, with proven qualities, to deliver Groupe Renault’s ambitions. 2020 will also be a decisive year for the Alliance. In 2019, we laid the foundations for a new cooperation, with the creation of the Alliance Operating Board that I have the honor of chairing. This Board will meet every month in the presence of the three Company Senior Executives. Together, we will take the decisions to strengthen the Alliance’s operational effectiveness, which is essential for improving the competitiveness of each member company. With this spirit of consensus, we will build the medium term strategic plans for the three companies. At the beginning of 2020, the Board decided to enter a new phase by presenting a new work framework to gain the maximum potential from each one’s strengths. For example, it was decided that a company should take the lead in the Alliance for each key technology, that will be then spread across the Alliance partners. This new organization for the Alliance is the foundation for Groupe Renault’s success. It will enable us to face the investments required to adapt to a changing regulatory context and develop the mobility of tomorrow. Groupe Renault faces multiple challenges, but we have all of the strengths, know-how and talents to meet them. The Group is transforming itself on a daily basis to better leverage these strengths and provide truly sustainable and inclusive mobility, everywhere and for everyone.

Groupe Renault faces multiple challenges, but we have all of the strengths
