3. Meetings Held

Since the last report, the Governance Committee has convened the following meetings:

  • September 10, 2067 – Finalized updates to board compliance standards and initiated the review of executive performance metrics.

The next scheduled meeting is set for November 5, 2067.

4. Key Activities and Progress

4.1 Overview

The committee has focused on the following key activities during this reporting period:

  • Annual Board Policy Review – A full review of board governance policies was completed. Areas that required updates or realignment with current compliance regulations have been identified and changes were drafted.

  • Executive Performance Evaluation – Initiated the assessment of executive leadership in accordance with new key performance indicators (KPIs). Preliminary results have been positive, though further analysis is ongoing.

4.2 Progress on Objectives

The Governance Committee is currently tracking progress against the following objectives:

  • Strengthening Compliance Protocols – Updated policies on board conduct and governance, ensuring compliance with updated legal standards and best practices. These will be submitted for board approval at the next meeting.

  • Executive Performance Review – Ongoing data collection on executive performance against new KPIs. A final evaluation report will be ready by December 2067.

5. Challenges

During this period, the committee encountered the following challenges that require attention:

  • Delays in External Compliance Audit – The external audit of board compliance processes has been delayed due to staffing shortages at the audit firm. This has impacted our ability to complete the annual compliance report on time.

  • KPI Definition Issues – Some discrepancies in the interpretation of KPIs for executive leadership have arisen, potentially delaying the final evaluation report.

We request the Board's guidance on whether to consider a new audit firm if the current one is unable to meet deadlines in future engagements.

6. Recommendations

The Governance Committee presents the following recommendations to the Board:

  • Approve the updated board governance policies as drafted by the committee to ensure continued compliance with evolving legal standards.

  • Consider engaging an alternative audit firm for the 2068 audit cycle, should the current delays continue.

7. Next Steps

The committee plans to continue its work on the following initiatives in the upcoming period:

  • Finalize Executive Performance Report – Complete the evaluation process and present findings to the Board by December 2067.

  • Implement New Compliance Policies – Ensure all board members are trained on the newly updated governance standards by the end of Q1 2068.

The committee will report back to the Board with updates at the next scheduled meeting on January 15, 2068.

8. Conclusion

The Governance Committee remains committed to supporting the Board’s objectives and welcomes any feedback or further direction. We look forward to continuing our efforts to ensure the highest standards of governance and compliance within the organization.
