Corporate Governance is based on several critical principles. They include an independent,
active and engaged Board of Directors which has the skill to properly evaluate and oversee the
business process, business and financial performance, internal control and compliance structure
and direct management on strategic and policy issues. On the other hand, the Board has to ensure
that the management headed by Chief Executive Officer (CEO) fully discharge their day to day
administrative responsibilities prescribed by BB and the Board itself and necessarily refrain
themselves from micro management of the management affairs.JBL, recognizes the importance
of good corporate governance as a major factor in enhancing the efficiency of the organization.
