Board Performance
Principle 5:
There should be a formal annual assessment of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole and its
board committees and the contribution by each director to the effectiveness of the Board.
The NC undertakes an annual evaluation of the overall effectiveness of the Board. The performance criteria for
the Board evaluation include the Board commitment, standard of conduct, competency, accountability, training &
development and interaction with directors, management and stakeholders.
Each director also undertakes a self-assessment to evaluate their contribution to the Board. This self-assessment
process takes into account, inter alia, the commitment, value of contribution to the development of strategy,
availability at board meetings, interactive skills, degree of preparedness, industry awareness and business knowledge
and experience of each director.
All directors completed an evaluation designed to seek their view on the various aspects of the self and Board
performance so as to assess the overall effectiveness of the Board.
The completed questionnaire were collated by the Company Secretary and the results of the evaluation exercise were
subsequently considered by the NC, which will then make recommendations to the Board, aimed at assisting the
Board to discharge its duties more effectively. Following the review of the assessment of the Board for FY2015, both
the NC and the Board are of the view that the performance of the Board as a whole is satisfactory.
