Corporate Governance Rules

ALRO is committed to achieving high standards of corporate governance. We believe that good corporate governance ensures clarity of roles between shareholders, the Board of Directors and management. Providing a clear framework based on robust principles helps to maximize shareholder value in the long term.

In August 2007, the Group adopted new corporate governance rules as part of its ongoing efforts to fully comply with Romanian requirements in real time. The Alro Board of Directors has appointed a team of managers for the legal representation of the Company.

 

Internal Audit

The internal audit supervises the company’s administration, to verify that its financial statements have been legally drawn up and are in accordance with the accounts. The audit must also ensure that accounts are regularly kept and that the assessment of the patrimony elements has been made in accordance with the rules established for the drawing up and presentation of the financial statements. The internal auditors inform the directors about the irregularities found in the administration and the violation of the legal provisions and the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation. They, in turn, inform the General Shareholders' Meeting about the most important cases.

 

ALRO’s Committees

ALRO is governed in an unitary system and, additionally it has within its organizational structure three committees, i.e. the Audit Committee – with powers delegated by the Annual General Shareholders Meeting, Remuneration and Nominations Committees and Risk and Sustainability Committee – designated by the Board of Directors.
