Key Terms

non- executive directors, e-voting system

2 terms

non- executive directors regulatory

"proposed appointments of Mr. Thomas M. Brakel and Mr. Khurem Farooq as non- executive directors"

Non-executive directors are members of a company's board who do not run day-to-day operations; they provide oversight, independent judgment, and advice on strategy, risk, and executive performance. They matter to investors because they act like independent referees or guardians, helping ensure management decisions and financial reporting are scrutinized and aligned with shareholders' long-term interests.

e-voting system technical

"requirements for notification and registration for the meeting and regarding the e-voting system"

An e-voting system is an electronic platform that lets shareholders cast and record votes on corporate matters—such as board elections and mergers—using computers or mobile devices instead of paper ballots. It matters to investors because voting determines who makes key decisions that affect a company’s strategy and value; the system’s ease of use, security and auditability influence turnout, the fairness of outcomes and investors’ confidence in corporate governance, much like online banking replaces paper checks but must be trusted.
