In March 2008, the Board of Directors adopted the company’s code of corporate governance which aims to ensure that the interests of all company shareholders are given due consideration. The Code is based on principles recommended by the UK Combined Code on Corporate Governance issued in 2008.
The Group’s corporate governance policies and practices are designed to ensure that the Company is focused on upholding its responsibilities to shareholders and include policies on the appointment of independent directors, the establishment and constitution of the Audit and other committees, ethical conduct, securities dealings and disclosure. The Group’s employees are required to follow the established guidelines, and the Group’s management is responsible for the promotion and application of these standards across all levels of the Group.
