Strategy Committee
The Strategy Committee is currently composed of 10 members, including the Chairman and the Managing Director. Our articles of association provide that the Strategy Committee may consist of up to 12 members who may or may not be shareholders and who are appointed by the General Meeting of Shareholders. Members of our Strategy Committee (other than the Chairman) are appointed for terms of three years by the ordinary general meeting of shareholders.
The Strategy Committee meets at least four times a year and is convened by the Chairman or the Managing Director. Its role is to assist and advise the Chairman on questions relating to our development strategy, finance, external growth transactions and the CSR policy. It hears the rapporteurs of specialist committees and may rule on any other question submitted to it by the Chairman. The members of the Strategy Committee can meet those of the Executive Committee in a seminar format.
