Echauz.

To reinforce board independence, the Board appointed Independent Director (ID) Ret. Chief Justice Artemio V. Panganiban as the Lead Independent Director pursuant to the recommendation under ASEAN Corporate Governance Scorecard and the SEC’s Code of Corporate Governance for Publicly-Listed Companies (PLCs). The Senior/Lead Independent Director shall have the following functions: 

 

  • To serve an intermediary between the Chairman and the other directors when necessary;

  • To convene and chair meeting of the non-executive directors; and

  • To contribute to the performance evaluation of the Chairman, as required.

 

The Lead Independent Director does not, however, act as Chairman in the absence of the Chairman, the same having been delegated to the Vice-Chairman. 

The Board also establishes and annually reviews Meralco’s vision, mission, strategic objectives, values, policies, and procedures that guide its activities, including the mechanisms for effective monitoring of Management’s performance, ensuring that internal control mechanisms for good governance are adequate.  

The Board, in its regular meeting held on January 27, 2025. As part of the Board’s assessment of the Company's performance in the past year, reviewed the vision, mission, and corporate strategic objectives of the Company. 

OMST

 

To support the effective performance of Board functions, Committees were established and delegated with specific responsibilities covering audit, risk management, related party transactions, and other key corporate governance concerns. In 2021, the Board added Sustainability Committee tasked to oversee the development and/or review of the Company’s sustainability framework, agenda, and policy in alignment with the Company’s business philosophy and strategies.

 


The qualifications, duties and responsibilities, committee composition, procedures, and remuneration of the Board of Directors are delineated in the Bylaws, Revised Manual of Corporate Governance and Board Charter.
