EuroChem is committed to robust corporate governance through compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations wherever it operates. All employees are responsible for respecting applicable laws and following the principles of our Code of Conduct and associated Compliance Policies.
We strive to uphold the highest ethical standards across all our activities, in line with EuroChem’s values, goals and objectives. The Board and senior management of the Group set the tone at the top, which is underpinned by the Code of Conduct.
EuroChem’s highest-ranking corporate governance body is the General Meeting of Shareholders (GM). The Board of Directors is elected by – and reports directly to – the GM. The Board of Directors appoints the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and determines the length of his or her mandate. The CEO reports directly to the Board of Directors.
The Board considers all issues that are referred to it by law, the Company’s Articles of Association and Regulations on the Board of Directors.
