A board is a key function of corporate governance that is to ensure that a company is legally run and in the best interests of shareholders and other stakeholders. This role requires independent functioning of management and focusing on the company’s most important concerns rather than its day-today operations.

The board oversees the company’s operations and strategies and policies, setting the policy, managing risks and taking other decisions that are its responsibility. It also decides on and oversees the performance of the CEO, as well as the succession planning process for the CEO and also establishes the company’s culture and purpose.

It also supports the interests of shareholders, ensures that financial data is accurately reported and makes certain that investors are informed of all information that could impact their holdings. It also takes steps to protect the integrity and reputation of the business and avoid fraud. It should encourage ongoing training among directors, especially on new technologies, crucial issues like environmental governance, social and (ESG), and global crises that affect the way a business operates.

A well-structured structure of the committee, which includes an executive secretary and chair, is critical to effective governance. It is important to promote a culture of collaboration and open communication between all members of the committee. The secretary of the committee will establish the agenda, record minutes of meetings, and distribute them to members of the committee.

A committee should be able to rely on the reports, recommendations and opinions of its advisers. It is vital that the committee knows the role of these advisors and assesses their credentials.
