Committees

The Supervisory Board rules of procedure provide for the formation of five committees: the Mediation Committee, the Executive Committee, the Investment, Finance, and Audit Committee, the Nomination Committee and the Technology and Digitalization Committee. All Supervisory Board committees have an equal number of employee representatives and shareholder representatives, apart from the Nomination Committee, which consists exclusively of shareholder representatives.

The Mediation Committee, which consists of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Deputy Chairman, one shareholder representative and one employee representative, submits specific recommendations to the Supervisory Board concerning the appointment of members of the Management Board if the first round of the election on the appointment does not result in the required majority of two thirds of the members of the Supervisory Board.
 

  • Dr. Herbert Diess (Chairman of the Supervisory Board and the Committee)
  • Johann Dechant (Deputy Chairman of the Supervisory Board)
  • Margret Suckale (Shareholder Representative)
  • Mirco Synde (Employee Representative)

The Nomination Committee, which consists of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board and two further shareholder representatives, proposes to the Supervisory Board suitable candidates for recommendation to the Annual General Meeting.
 

  • Dr. Herbert Diess (Chairman of the Supervisory Board and the Committee)
  • Margret Suckale (Shareholder Representative)

The Executive Committee consists of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Deputy Chairman, two shareholder representatives and two employee representatives. The duties of this committee include preparing the decisions to be taken by the full Supervisory Board regarding the appointment or dismissal of members of the Management Board and Management Board compensation. The Executive Committee is authorized in its own capacity to make decisions with respect to contracts with members of the Management Board, except in matters involving remuneration.

The Investment, Finance and Audit Committee („Audit Committee“) consists of two shareholder representatives and two employee representatives.

The Audit Committee monitors the Company’s financial reporting process and discusses and examines the Separate Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements prepared by the Management Board as well as the half-yearly and any quarterly financial reports. It gives recommendations with respect to the approval of the Separate Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements by the Supervisory Board based on the independent auditor’s report, submits recommendations to the Supervisory Board regarding the election of the independent auditor, engages the auditor elected at the Annual General Meeting to audit the Separate Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements and review any interim financial reports, specifies the key areas to be examined in audit activities jointly with the auditor and is responsible for determining the auditor’s compensation.

Other matters addressed by the Audit Committee include monitoring the appropriateness and effectiveness of the internal control system, the internal audit system and the risk management system. Internal Audit reports regularly to the Audit Committee.

Furthermore, the Audit Committee is responsible for discussing compliance issues. The Management Board and the Corporate Compliance Officer regularly report to the Audit Committee on the structure and work of the compliance organization and on any particular compliance issues.
