Governance of Simplified Joint Stock Company

Corporate governance in simplified joint-stock companies (SJSC) ensures transparency, efficiency, and fairness between shareholders and management. SJSCs offer flexibility in their structure, simplifying decision-making and administrative processes. The governance document clearly defines roles, responsibilities, capital management, dividend distribution, and shareholders’ decision-making powers. It emphasizes transparency through regular financial auditing by independent auditors and systematic financial reporting. Key management roles include strategic oversight by the chairman, operational leadership by the general manager, and strategic policymaking by the board of directors. Shareholders have essential responsibilities, such as attending meetings, voting on major decisions, appointing auditors, and approving capital changes. Clear procedures for trading shares and handling in-kind contributions enhance fairness and stability. Amendments to the company’s articles of association require structured shareholder approval, emphasizing transparency, fairness, and alignment with long-term sustainability and business growth.
