Governance

Built around missions and values, corporate governance is a system put in place to direct and control the company over the long term. Governance protects the rights and interests of shareholders, as well as those of other stakeholders (managers, employees, customers, suppliers, banks, etc.). It also provides a framework for monitoring strategic actions, and the definition and proper use of resources to deliver the expected level of performance. It defines who controls what, and how this control is exercised. To this end, it sets out rules, practices and codes of conduct, depending on the situation.
