Corporate Governance


Overview

We are committed to maintaining a high standard of corporate governance practices, demonstrated through an experienced Board, sound risk management and internal controls, and transparency and accountability to all shareholders.

MMG maintains a high standard of corporate governance practices demonstrated through an experienced Board, sound risk management and internal controls, and transparency and accountability to all shareholders. We apply the principles of good corporate governance as set out in the Corporate Governance Code of the Hong Kong Listing Rules and those of the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM).

To further enhance its corporate governance practices, the Board approved a restructuring and re-constitution of its Board committees that came into effect on 4 December 2019. The restructure implemented two standing Board committees, namely the Audit and Risk Management Committee and the Governance, Remuneration, Nomination and Sustainability Committee.

Through our committees we ensure a high standard of business practice. Our Board level Audit and Risk Management Committee and the Governance, Remuneration, Nomination and Sustainability Committee operate under clear terms of reference.

We have several executive management committees that provide a forum for a more detailed analysis of key issues in managing the company. These include:

  • Safety, Health, Environment and Community (SHEC) Committee.
  • Disclosure Committee.
  • Investment Review Committee.
  • Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves Committee.
  • Code of Conduct Committee.
