Corporate Governance

 
Good corporate governance is to conduct the affairs of Al Fahim Group in a manner that is consistent with best practice, legal requirements, ethics and the core values.

The concept of corporate governance can be thought of as:

The system by which organizations are directed and controlled. By definition corporate governance encompasses all processes, customs, policies, laws and even includes people and institutions which affect the way a corporation is administered, directed or controlled.

Accordingly in 2008, we formalized and aligned Al Fahim’s Corporate Governance framework to the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority (ESCA - Decision No. R/32, Corporate Governance Regulations for Joint-Stock Companies and Institutional Discipline Criteria) Regulations and implemented all material requirements ahead of the 2010 deadline, 2 years ahead of schedule.

The key elements driving corporate governance in Al Fahim are accountability, transparency and integrity and the key dimensions are as follows:

1. Commitment >

2. An Effective Board of Directors >

3. Effective Management Controls >

4. Committees >

5. Group Risk and Internal Audit Function >

6. Disclosure and Transparency >

7. Harmonious owner relations >

8. Code of Conduct >

9. Etisal Al Nazahah Ethics Hotline >
