Governance

Strong governance and strategy

Our board has a responsibility to ensure that the company delivers not only to its shareholders but also for a much wider set of stakeholders, including its employees and customers

The role of the board

The Board is responsible for defining the Company's purpose, setting a strategy to deliver it and monitoring values and behaviours that shape how Ricardo conducts its business and culture.

Board committees

The Board has established four main committees including the Nomination committee, Remuneration committee, Audit committee, and the Responsible Business committee. 

Each committee supports the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities and operates under its own terms of reference. The committees enable more detailed reviews to take place, as appropriate.
