BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Compliance with the principles of good corporate governance starts with the Board of Trustees. The Board, composed of nine distinguished professionals and executives known for their integrity and probity, ensures a high standard of best practice for governance and sets the strategic directions of the Company. It also monitors Management's performance towards the attainment of the Corporation's strategic objectives in line with the corporate mission and vision. s

The trustees elect the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Chairman of the Executive Committee, President, at least four members of the Executive Committee, Secretary, and Treasurer.

The Board of Trustees actively participate in the management of the company through the following Board Committees: Executive, Nominations, Governance, Budget and Audit, Finance and Investment, and Personnel & Compensation.
