Why it is important

We recognise the importance of good governance in achieving our corporate objectives, in discharging our responsibilities and endeavouring to meet the expectations of all stakeholders.

Our management approach

Ramsay’s governance framework is designed to ensure that the company is effectively managed, that legal and regulatory obligations are met and that the culture of personal and corporate integrity is reinforced.

Ramsay is steadfast in its commitment to maintaining strong corporate governance practices and reinforcing our culture and principles across all aspects of the business.

Our approach is outlined in our annual Corporate Governance Statement (accessible here).

The Board continually reviews our governance policies and practices to ensure they remain appropriate in light of developments in law, regulations and stakeholder expectations.
