A multicultural management team for a responsible governance
The Company is organized around the Group Management Board: this is Coface's decision-making body. It generally meets every week to review and validate the Company's main strategic orientations and to steer its management, in particular with regard to strategy and budget, major investments and projects, defining the organization and human resources, monitoring operational performance and results, as well as controlling and ensuring the compliance of activities.
The Group Management Board is complemented by the Executive Committee, composed of the Group Management Board, the regional director, and key internal stakeholders. It contributes to the development of the Group's strategy and the study of key operational issues or strategic initiatives.
