Board and governance

The Directors are responsible for the overall management and control of Oakley Capital Investments. The Directors review the operations of OCI at regular quarterly board meetings.

The Board has formally delegated certain duties and responsibilities to the following committees:

Audit & Risk Committee

The purpose of the Audit & Risk Committee is to provide oversight of:

  • The financial reporting process, the audit process and the system of internal controls of Oakley Capital Investments Limited and its compliance with laws and regulations
  • The risk management process for Oakley Capital Investments Limited and ensures that risks are identified, assessed, monitored and mitigated in accordance with the Company’s risk appetite

Management Engagement Committee

The purpose of the Management Engagement Committee is to review on a regular basis the appointment, remuneration and performance of the key service providers to OCI. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee will not review the performance of the OCI’s auditor.

Remuneration Committee

The Remuneration Committee is tasked with reviewing and determining, on an annual basis, the level of fees payable to OCI’s directors, with a view to ensuring the appropriate remuneration of the board.

Nomination Committee

The principle duties of the Nomination Committee are to oversee appointments and re-appointments to the board of OCI, with a view to ensuring the effective operation of the board. As part of these duties, the Nomination Committee will regularly review the structure, size, and composition (including the skills, knowledge, experience and diversity) of the board and its committees.

Governance, Regulatory and Compliance Committee

The principle duties of the Governance, Regulatory and Compliance Committee are to evaluate, monitor and thereby ensure OCI’s ongoing compliance with the relevant codes, laws, regulations and external policies applicable to it and to provide oversight of OCI’s relationships with its regulators.

Corporate governance

The Directors recognise the importance of sound corporate governance. OCI complies with the Association of Investment Companies (AIC) Code of Conduct (the “AIC Code”), save for certain recommendations of the AIC Code which may be deemed inappropriate for OCI. In the case of departures from the AIC Code, these will be highlighted within the OCI’s Annual Report.

Board Succession Policy Summary

The Board of OCI has formally adopted a Board Succession Policy.

The Company recognises the importance of reviewing Board composition, Director performance, and tenure at least annually to address the evolving needs of the Company. This helps to ensure that the Company remains open to new ideas and independent thinking whilst retaining adequate experience and expertise in line with the needs of the Company, Bermuda Company law and the AIC Code of Corporate Governance.

The key pillars of the Policy are set out below:

  • Due consideration is given to the independence, effectiveness, experience and contribution to the Company when determining tenure of the Directors.
  • Directors are typically appointed for an initial term of three-years (the Initial Term).
  • Extensions to the Initial Term are considered at the Board’s discretion and as advised by the Nominations Committee.
  • Notwithstanding this, tenure is subject to annual re-election at the annual general meetings.
  • Ensuring compliance with Bermudian economic substance requirements by appointing sufficient proportion of Board members who are based in Bermuda.
  • Empowering the Company’s Nominations Committee to assess Board member tenure, effectiveness and the contributions of individual incumbent Directors to the Company’s mandate.
  • Maintaining an absolute minimum of two Directors to ensure compliance with the Company’s Bye-Laws.
