Governance

Hostmore is committed to maintaining high governance standards across the group and its brands, recognising these to be fundamental for successful long-term performance, sustaining the group through an evolving market and regulatory environment.

The Hostmore Board sees corporate governance as an integral part of its business strategy. By putting in place an appropriate governance framework, the Board has set out clearly the standards that it expects and has promoted a culture of accountability, transparency and ‘speaking up’ that applies across its brands, which in turn provides a foundation for building shareholder and stakeholder confidence in the company.

Hostmore’s compliance with good corporate governance is overseen by the Board and the Board Committees, who provide effective stewardship of the company.
