Alsea’s Board of Directors, aware of its responsibilities as a publicly traded company, has implemented a series of Corporate Governance measures. We have worked to institutionalize the Company through transparent practices, which, over time we have not only managed to do, but we have surpassed what was established in the Code of Corporate Best Practices.
We seek the institutionalization of the company through transparent practices.
Management of the Issuer is the responsibility of a Board of Directors comprised of 13 members, ratified or named at the Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 29, 2024. The Board of Directors is comprised of 13 members, of whom 3 are related proprietary members, 2 are independent proprietary members and 8 are independent with a board member who is related proprietary by the company acting as the chairman. With a desire to have an impartial vision of strategic planning, Alsea has incorporated the figure of an Independent Board Member, who today represents more 50% of all of the Board Members, which percentage surpasses the 25% required by the Stock Markets Law. There is no Substitute Board Member at Alsea, as we believe that if a Board Member with an equity stake does not attend the meetings of the Board of Directors, this dilutes their obligations before the other members of the Board of Directors. At our company, a board meeting may be summoned at the request of at least 25% of the Board Members.
