Governance
Strong governance and strategy
Our board has a responsibility to ensure that the company delivers not only to its shareholders but also for a much wider set of stakeholders, including its employees and customers
The role of the board
The Board is responsible for defining the Company's purpose, setting a strategy to deliver it and monitoring values and behaviours that shape how Ricardo conducts its business and culture.
Ricardo's Board is collectively responsible for the long-term success of the company, assisted by the executive committee and its appointed advisors. The full matters reserved for the Board are available below.
Board committees
The Board has established five main committees including the Nomination committee, Remuneration committee, Audit committee, Disclosure committee and the Responsible business committee.
Each committee supports the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities and operates under its own terms of reference. The committees enable more detailed reviews to take place, as appropriate.
