Subjects discussed by the Management Board
Subjects discussed by the Management Board

Among the most important issues addressed by the Company’s Management Board in 2023 are as follows:
  • On reviewing the information of the Company’s Management on implementation of the corrective measures to eliminate gaps identified by the Company’s Audit Commission, Company’s Internal Audit, Third-Party Control and Supervision Bodies on implementation of measures taken to address the information about potential cases of unfair practices of employees, and following the results of investigations made at year-end 2022
  • On recognising the acquisition of the property constituting fixed assets to be expedient, with the purpose of the assets being the production, transmission, dispatching, distribution of electric and thermal energy, – power grid property belonging to JSC Energoservis Yuga, worth RUB 132,000,000 (One hundred thirty-two million) 00 kopecks
  • On considering reports of risk owners on management of functional risks and business process risks of the Company
  • On reviewing progress reports on the RAS composite and IFRS consolidated business plans of the Rosseti South Group for 2022
  • On reviewing reports on the financial and business performance of subsidiaries and affiliates of PJSC Rosseti South

  • On pre-approving the agreement on amendments to the collective bargaining agreement of PJSC Rosseti South for 2023–2025

Additionally, a sizable portion of the issues that were examined in 2023 had to do with choosing how to close deals involving property, works and services, the value of which ranged from 1 to 25% of the Company’s assets’ book value as stated in the accounting (financial) statements as of the last reporting date.

In addition to the current management of the Company, the Management Board, as one of the main participants of the risk management process, devoted a significant part of its time to streamlining the internal control and risk management system, as well as to proposals for its development and improvement at the Company.

Prevention of conflicts of interest

GRI 2-15

The Company is more focused on preventing and reducing the effects of any conflicts of interest among government body members of the Company.

The settlement of conflicts of interest is based on the Code of Corporate Ethics, the Regulations on the Board of Directors and the Regulations on the Management Board of the Company approved by the Company.

As recommended by the Corporate Governance Code of the Bank of Russia, members of the Board of Directors are advised to refrain from actions that will or may lead to a conflict between their interests and the interests of the Company. The executive bodies of the Company are likewise subject to the duty to act fairly and honestly in the best interests of the Company.

The requirements of Article 82 of the Federal Law “On Joint Stock Companies” for the sending of notices to PJSC Rosseti South regarding indications of potential interest in the Company’s transactions were satisfied by all members of the management bodies of the Company.
