Junta Directiva

(102-25)(102-26)

ESTE ES NUESTRO ÓRGANO ESTRATÉGICO POR EXCELENCIA

Se encarga de orientar y revisar el cumplimiento de los objetivos corporativos, adoptar las políticas en materia económica, social y ambiental, hacerles seguimiento a los riesgos materiales, establecer y monitorear el sistema de control interno, entre otras actividades clave para asegurar que la compañía alcance sus metas.

La Junta Directiva tiene en la actualidad siete miembros, de los cuales se designaron tres en calidad de independientes en lugar de dos. Esto significa un 43% de miembros independientes, superando el 25% establecido por las normas colombianas.

Con base en los criterios del Dow Jones, tendríamos cuatro miembros independientes, lo cual representa un 57%.

(102-25) Esta decisión se tomó en sintonía con los criterios establecidos por Grupo Argos, reforzando con esto el interés de la corporación por ejercer un mayor control de su gestión y otorgarle a la Junta Directiva mayor independencia, evitando así posibles conflictos de interés en la toma de decisiones.

Los directores son elegidos por la Asamblea General de Accionistas y tienen establecidos períodos de un año en su función, con posibilidad de ser reelegidos de manera indefinida.

De igual manera pueden ser removidos libremente por la Asamblea, incluso antes de que venza su período.

El Código de Buen Gobierno determina que estos deben asistir, como mínimo, al 80% de las reuniones que sean convocadas cada año.

Como un ejercicio de buenas prácticas y de transparencia en el ejercicio del gobierno corporativo, la Junta Directiva sesiona al menos una vez al año sin la presencia de la Administración y además visita y conoce en directo cómo se desarrollan las operaciones en alguna de las concesiones y proyectos. Esto, al igual que toda su agenda del año y los temas por tratar, es planeado y aprobado con antelación.
