Corporate governance

Introduction

Management accepts the rights of Altron’s shareholders as the true owners of the company and understands its own role as trustees on behalf of the shareholders. Corporate governance provides guidance and oversight as the company seeks to find a balance between conformance with governance principles and superior levels of performance in terms of a sustainable return on shareholders’ investments.

Following guidance from the 2002 King Report on Corporate Governance for South Africa (King II), the company has created an open environment for institutional activism and we actively manage and report on the non-financial aspects of the company’s performance through the sustainability report. In 2008, Altron again qualified for the JSE’s Social Responsibility Investment (SRI) Index.
