The AGCO Board of Directors (the Board) is responsible for the overall governance of the AGCO and meets regularly. In exercising its governance functions, the Board sets goals and develops policy and strategic directions for the Commission to fulfill its mandate; this includes working with the Chief Executive Officer and senior management on regulatory and governance activities.
As part of its governance structure, the Board has two standing committees. These committees are the Finance, Audit and Risk Management Committee and the Strategic Oversight and Governance Committee. The committees are accountable to the Board and provide regular updates at board meetings, highlighting key decision points, areas of substantive discussion and recommendations to the Board.
