The role of a board in corporate governance is to ensure that the company is operating legally and in the best interest of shareholders and other stakeholders. This requires that the board operate independently of management and concentrate on important issues rather than the day-to-day business.
The board oversees the company’s strategies and operations, setting policy, managing risk and making other choices that are its responsibility. The board also selects as well as oversees and plans the succession of the CEO as well as the performance of the CEO. It also determines the company’s culture and mission.
It also promotes the interests of shareholders, makes sure that financial information is reported correctly and makes certain that investors receive all the information that could impact their holdings. It also takes steps to safeguard the integrity of a business and to prevent fraud and other deceit. Directors should be urged to be informed regularly and especially on new technologies and key issues like environmental governance, social, and governance (ESG) or global issues that affect the way a business is operated.
A well-structured committee structure, which includes the secretary and chair plays a crucial role in ensuring effective governance. It is important to promote the culture of collaboration as well as open communication among all members of the committee. The secretary of the committee sets the agenda, keep minutes of meetings and distribute them to the members of the committee.
A committee must have the confidence to rely on the advice of its advisors’ advice, reports, and opinions. It is essential that the committee comprehends who these advisors are and assesses their credentials.
