We work to maintain a modern and effective framework of policies and structures to ensure best practices for corporate governance. The composition of our ten-person independent Board satisfies many of the classic characteristics highlighted by governance advisors as being fundamental to good governance:
During the 2019 Annual Meeting of shareholders, proposals for consideration, including Board nominees, auditor appointment and executive compensation achieved 99% approval by shareholders.
Institutional Shareholder Services Inc., a leading shareholder advisory services firm, supported all proposals by the company and assessed its governance score as “Low Risk.”
We believe that Mercer’s viability and integrity depend on the protection of our critical assets, including our people, physical assets, and our information. We also believe that our communication, internal controls, and processes must adapt to the changing needs and objectives of the company, as well as to the changing marketplace. We appreciate your support and cooperation in keeping Mercer an ethical company from top to bottom.
