Supervisory Board

The Supervisory Board is the supervising body of the CABB Group and consists of six members, three of which are independent. The Supervisory Board is responsible for the approval of the corporate strategy, supervises its implementation, and ensures good governance through clearly defined responsibilities, processes, and policies. In particular, it approves and reviews the governance principles and the management structures as well as internal regulations and directives, including organizational regulations and committee charters.

Furthermore, the Supervisory Board determines succession planning regarding the Executive Management Board, together with the Remuneration and Nomination Committee (RNC) and decides on the individual and total amount of fixed and variable compensation payable.

The Supervisory Board also appoints and removes the Board committees (except for the RNC) as well as the CEO and the other members of the Executive Management Board and reviews their performance in meeting agreed goals and objectives and complying with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.
