Our Approach

Governance

Rigorous governance gives structure and oversight to our company purpose.

To help uphold our purpose of creating fair and sustainable value, we have established a governance structure that ensures we monitor and maintain momentum by focusing on key areas.

Our Committees

Our committees are composed of members of our senior leadership teams and representatives of our platforms and other business areas as appropriate. We also seek to include relevant external expertise, and will invite ad hoc attendees where necessary.

Environment Committee

Responsible for all other aspects of LDC’s environmental impacts, principally in relation to our supply chains. Addressing challenging areas with the following ambitions:
