Objective Action

Corporate Governance is a set of rules governing the relationship between the Board of Directors, senior executives dealing with day-to-day operations and stockholders. Some corporate governance rules are laid out in relevant legislation, including the Greek Capital Market Committee’s Corporate Code of Conduct, Laws 3016/2002, 3693/2008, 3884/2010 and 2190/1920, but are largely based on the code of corporate ethics and plain administration rationale. Corporate Governance aims at ensuring the productivity of Company assets and invested capital to maximize long term shareholder value.
