The Judging Panel used the Integrated Reporting Framework as a basis for reviewing the nominees’ annual reports and they noted a high level of compliance with the requirements of the Code of Corporate Governance.
Michael Ho Wan Kau, who presented the Judging Panel findings, said: “In terms of the scoring, there was not much in it between the five nominees. Terra produced a much improved layout of its Corporate Governance Report. It focused on the effectiveness and performance of its Board and Committee. Its directors had to submit a self evaluation of their emotional intelligence which was discussed with the Chairman in presence of an independent consultant. The directors also answered a questionnaire on the effectiveness of the Board. It revised its Code of Ethics and set up a whistle-blowing policy which is monitored externally”.
