Guiding Leadership

The Board is primarily responsible for the governance of Meralco. Corollary to setting the policies for the accomplishment of the corporate objectives, the Board also provides an independent oversight on Management. The Board establishes Meralco’s vision, mission, strategic objectives, policies and procedures that guide its activities, including the mechanisms for effective monitoring of Management’s performance. The Board also ensures that internal control mechanisms for good governance are adequate.
 
Board Composition

The Board consists of 11 directors who are elected by the stockholders during the AGM. The Board represents a mix of disciplines in the area of business, finance, operations and legal competencies, with each director capable of adding value and exercising independent judgment. Of these directors, two are independent directors, eight are non-executive directors, and one is an executive director. The composition of the Board clearly delineates their responsibilities with those of Management.
