The Supervisory Board: Optimal and value-creating composition 

Effectively composed and (collaboratively) functioning boards are crucial for the long-term success of a company. Mercer | hkp///group Corporate Governance Advisors bring extensive experience in defining criteria for the composition of Supervisory Boards and Management Boards. We help to keep track of the diverse requirements regarding the composition of Supervisory and Management Boards. In addition to the necessary professional qualifications, requirements such as diversity, independence, and limitations on the number of mandates must be met. Through a careful selection of criteria and regular evaluation, we ensure that your Supervisory Board contributes to the company's success in a sustainable way - with foresight and in consideration of the skills and qualifications that meet all the requirements.

Our support includes, among others:

  • Elaboration of diversity concepts for the Supervisory Board, including expertise in sustainability issues
  • Examination of the independence, mandate limits, etc. of Supervisory Board members
  • Elaboration of diversity concepts for the Management Board
  • Development of allocation plans for the Management Board’s responsibilities
  • External documentation, e.g., Declaration of Conformity with the German Corporate Governance Code (GCGC), Corporate Governance Declaration/Report, Report of the Supervisory Board, etc.
