The Plaza S.A. Board is composed of nine members. By law, it is the company’s administrator: it defines its objectives, appoints the CEO and delegates execution of the strategy to him. It controls the company’s management through Board meetings and the Committee of Directors.
Training:
Every year, the Mallplaza Board of Directors has a permanent training mechanism in relevant matters for proper decision-making and correct performance of their functions.
Thus, the training session on June 6, 2024, covered ESG and Risk issues.
In addition, this body has a digital learning platform, which considers five modules that deal with the following subjects: fiduciary duties of Directors; free competition; crime prevention– criminal liability of the legal entity–, personal data; and integrity. The courses are mandatory for all Directors and evaluated accordingly.
