Corporate Governance

​High-quality Corporate Governance is vital for safeguarding our business and the interests of our shareholders.

​

The Corporate Governance Charter

The Charter contains detailed guidelines for our governance framework. Our Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring we comply with these guidelines, which take into account our regulatory obligations. 

The Head of Corporate Affairs will formally review the Charter for its completeness, adequacy, and alignment to business imperatives (current and future) on an annual basis or on a more frequent basis if deemed necessary.​
