Our board of directors
conducts transparent and
responsible management to
maximize corporate value
At Samsung Electronics, our board consists of nine members,
including five outside directors. The board deliberates and re-
solves: issues determined by laws or articles; issues that arise
from general shareholders’ meetings; and issues of key princi-
ples in company management and business operation. The board
also oversees the activities of directors. In 2014, we convened
seven board meetings and proposed and addressed 26 motions.
We manage six board committees, including the Management
Committee, the Audit Committee, the Outside Director Candidate
Recommendation Committee, the Internal Transaction Com-
mittee, the Compensation Committee and the CSR Committee.
Board committees were also active in 2014. Comprised of four in-
side directors, our Management Committee hosted 13 meetings.
Comprised of three outside directors, the Audit Committee had
five meetings. To ensure fairness and independence, three of the
four members of the Outside Director Candidate Recommenda-
tion Committee are outside directors. The Internal Transaction
Committee has three outside directors and had seven meetings
in 2014. With three outside directors, the Compensation Commit-
tee hosted two meetings while the CSR Committee, with five out-
side directors, held two meetings that deliberated and resolved
the delegated issues.
