The Board’s role at Ferd

The Board’s areas of responsibility

The Board is responsible for Ferd’s corporate mission statement, its vision and values, its group strategy, its organisation and incentive systems, and for its half-yearly reports and annual reports.

The Board is also a decision-making body in relation to the establishment of new business units, the full or partial sale of existing business units, and strategic collaboration agreements at the business unit level.

The Board’s independence

Ferd’s owners and management are of the view that it is very valuable for the majority of the members of Ferd’s Board to be independent and to only be connected with Ferd through their responsibility to look after the group’s interests. The group’s Board helps define what constitute satisfactory results and the quality of the group’s decision making processes.

The Board’s expertise and experience

The board members’ expertise and experience from other organisations enable them to make a positive contribution to the group’s strategy processes, risk management and recruitment of senior personnel. Its members make a valuable contribution to Ferd’s network and help the group to be viewed positively by collaboration partners and external organisations.
