Website
The introduction of the new Benetton Investor Relations website (www.benettongroup.com/investors), in March 2008, has resulted in ongoing improvements in this tool, which has always been the Group's principal method of disseminating its economic and financial information in a rapid and detailed format, used by the financial community as a source of updated and in-depth information about the Group.
The new site not only boasts a new design and structure for easier navigation, but also includes the Interactive Value Chain, which provides users with a complete overview of the Group, with different levels of detail according to their specific requirements.
In May 2008, the Investor Relations website made yet another change with the introduction of the Interactive Annual Report: an innovative, fast and simple tool for viewing the financial and economic information for 2007.
This new section, complete with financial charts and specific sections, presents the Directors' report, the Consolidated financial statements and the Corporate governance report. All the details can be downloaded directly to the user's email address or through RSS, ensuring a complete service, where the transparency and immediacy of information disclosure in keeping with the best standards of accessibility is of the utmost importance.
New tests and experiments were conducted in the year to make the site even more interactive, on the basis that it is a platform for both outward and inward communication; one example is the introduction in August 2008 of a new interactive IR Network service for all members of the financial community.
Additional services and information are available at www.benettongroup.com/investors.
