Management has created committees composed of key executives who meet regularly to discuss business performance and issues critical to the growth of the company, and to facilitate the flow of strategic and operational information among the company’s decision-makers. This ensures that decision-making is always made in the best interest of the organization.
Initiatives which are reviewed and endorsed by management-level committees are discussed at length with the appropriate Board-level Committees for approval and consequently, for endorsement to the full Board for ratification.
AYALA GROUP MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE
The Ayala Group Management Committee is composed of the Chairman and CEO, the President and COO, the five Ayala Corporation Group Heads, and the CEOs of the Ayala group companies. The Committee oversees the group strategic plan and ensures the alignment of individual business unit priorities to the group-wide direction. It meets regularly to review business performance, discuss group-wide issues and events, and identify areas of possible synergy and collaboration.
INVESTMENT COMMITTEE
The Investment Committee (IC) is composed of the Chairman and CEO, the President and COO, and key members of the company’s senior management.
The IC reviews, provides direction, and gives preliminary approval for initiatives that may originate from the company or its subsidiaries specifically requiring funding from the company. Once a project clears the IC, it is endorsed for approval to the appropriate Board Committee and to the full Board.
AYALA CORPORATION MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE
The Ayala Corporation Management Committee includes the Chairman and CEO, the President and COO, and the Group Heads. The Committee approves corporate, administrative, and organizational matters that pertain exclusively to the company, as well as group-wide affairs when relevant.
