Corporate Governance

Corporate Governance at The Saudi Investment Bank is about promoting fairness, transparency and accountability by setting out the responsibilities of the Board, management and shareholders. More than just showing a further commitment to doing the right thing, good governance is a strong indicator of overall management capability and quality.

The Chairman of the Board is independent, with the role of the Chairman being separate from the role of the CEO.
