Corporate Governance

The Dutch Corporate Governance Code prescribes that quite a number of documents relating to Corporate Governance should be published on the company's website. We gladly adhere to this practice in order to inform our stakeholders and other interested parties of the way our company has embedded its Corporate Governance policies. Here you can find that DSM is applying all 113 Best Practices of this code with one exception.

Checks and balances
The information to be found on this website gives you an insight into the headlines and details of the checks and balances which we are using to make sure that DSM is managed in a controlled, consistent and balanced way.

Corporate culture
Rules and regulations are of course important in this respect, but an open culture is of paramount importance. In our opinion DSM has such a culture and overall we are of the opinion that DSM's Corporate Governance is well anchored.
