Board of Directors


The Board of Directors determines on the one hand (i) the strategy and objectives of the company concerned, (ii) the risk policy, including the general risk tolerance limits and (iii) the organisation for the provision or performance of investment services and activities and ancillary services and (iv) the integrity policy. At the same time the Board of Directors supervises the activities and regularly assesses the effectiveness of the governance system. The Board of Directors strives to manage the company in accordance with the principles of corporate governance, with the aim of properly managing and monitoring the company on the basis of a set of rules and behaviours.

Corporate governance includes setting the company's objectives, establishing effective governance and internal control, recognising and taking due account of the interests of all members of the company, and conducting the business in accordance with the principles of sound and prudent management, in accordance with legal and regulatory provisions. The Board of Directors operates as a collegial body.

His mission is to give sustainability a prominent place at all levels of Argenta. The CSO is assisted by the sustainability manager, the Group Sustainability Committee and the Investment Exclusion Committee, which contribute to the effective implementation of the policy.
