The stone of the scandal, in this case, is the super-liquidation that the pharmaceutical company Novartis will pay to the outgoing number one Daniel Vasella, an at least inappropriate <b>severance pay of 72 million francs (about 60 million euros)<\/b>, which caused a wave of indignation throughout the country.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: IT\">&quot;Madness&quot;, defined the Socialist Minister of Justice and Police, Simonetta Sommaruga, while the president of the Swiss Confindustria Rudolph Wehrli increased the dose: &quot;I understand that everyone is indignant, on the other hand I am too&quot;. <b>Novartis shareholders were also enraged<\/b>, who threaten legal action, and during next Friday&#039;s meeting, which promises to be fiery, they will try to block this payment.<\/p>\n<p> To further complicate an already intricate picture, the fact that the news of the super-liquidation of the fifty-nine-year-old Vasella has arrived <b>two weeks away from a referendum<\/b>, to be held on March 3, which aims to put a ceiling on the abusive salaries of managers.<\/p>\n<p> The serious risk is that this severance pay has provided the necessary emotional boost to supporters of the yes, led by the small businessman Thomas Minder, who, according to some newspapers, has Vasella to thank precisely if, at the moment, it would seem that <b>the 57% of Swiss voters are in favor of the salary cap for managers<\/b>, despite the fears of business circles who fear that such a law could push the best managers to emigrate en masse to other countries. The president of the liberal party Philipp M\u00fcller is quite clear on the matter: &quot;It&#039;s as if he had shot us in the foot,&quot; he said, speaking of Vasella.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt\"><span class=\"MsoHyperlink\"><font size=\"3\"><font color=\"#0000ff\"><u><font face=\"Calibri\">Le Matins<\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/u><\/font><\/font><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt\"><span class=\"MsoHyperlink\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"><span style=\"color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none\"><u><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Calibri\">FIRST online \u2013 February 18, 2013<\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/font><\/u><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><\/p>\n<p><em><font size=\"3\">&nbsp;Related news: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.federaisf.org\/Start\/HDefault.aspx?Newsid=7497\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ht<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La notizia della buonuscita record da 60 milioni di euro che Novartis verser&agrave; nelle tasche del numero uno uscente Daniel Vasella ha provocato una levata di scudi in tutto il Paese &#8211; Il ministro Sommaruga: &quot;Siamo alla follia&quot; &#8211; Tra due settimane il referendum che punta a mettere un tetto agli stipendi dei manager: si &hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fedaiisf-archivio-storico"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16278"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16278\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
