Alrosa approved amendments to the regulations on remuneration to members of the Supervisory Board, de-linking the remuneration from the company’s revenue. Previously, the basic component of the remuneration payable to the Supervisory Board members was linked to the last year’s revenue. The revised regulations will set a fixed amount.
The new remuneration system is aimed at motivating the Board members to focus on long-term strategic objectives and sustainable development goals, the company said.
According to the amendments, the decision on the amount of remuneration and its payment shall be a subject of approval by the general shareholders’ meeting based on the Supervisory Board’s recommendations.
Maria Gordon, Senior Independent Director, said: “These amendments are aligned with good corporate governance practices that enable the Board to focus on the long-term strategic goals to build resilience of the business and create value for stakeholders. I am glad the company’s shareholders approved the decision at the recent AGM held in June.”
