Corporate governance

NIS is dedicated to the application of high standards of Corporate Governance based on internationally recognized standards and best practices.

Aware of the importance of efficient and responsible corporate governance, NIS is dedicated to the application of high standards in this area based on internationally accepted principles and experiences of best practice, and to the continuous development and upgrading of the corporate governance system.

Corporate governance needs to ensure:

  • efficient implementation and protection of the shareholders’ rights and the company’s interests;
  • fair and equal treatment of the shareholders;
  • responsibility of the company bodies to the shareholders;
  • transparency in the work and decision-making processes of the management;
  • professionalism and ethical conduct of the management;
  • timely, complete and accurate reporting and disclosure of all important information;
  • efficient control over the company’s financial and business activities in order to protect the rights and legitimate interests of the shareholders;
  • development of business ethics and socially responsible operation.

Our strategic corporate objectives are:

  • professional and responsible management;
  • efficiency of the management bodies which act in the best interest of the company and its shareholders in order to increase the company’s assets and value, and
  • a high level of transparency in the company’s operation, making it accessible to the public.

Company Management System

The company has established a one-tier management system, with the Board of Directors exercising the central role in the company’s management and being responsible for the realization of set goals and the achievement of results, with shareholders primarily exercising their rights and control through the Shareholders’ Assembly. The Articles of Association clearly differentiate between the competence and responsibilities of the Shareholders’ Assembly, Board of Directors, CEO and corporate bodies established by the company management bodies.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file sent to your computer when you visit a website. Cookies perform many different functions on NIS websites, making it possible for you, among other things, to move more efficiently through webpages, storing your favourite settings and, in general, helping to improve your website experience.
The EU Directive 2009/136/EC allows storing cookies on your device if they are essential for the functioning of the website, whereas all other cookies are conditional on your consent.

NIS websites may also use the cookies that are not essential for their functioning. Such cookies are not used to track the behaviour of individual users or identify them but to gain useful insight into the way in which the websites are used, so we could further improve them for our users. Without the insight gained through cookie-based systems, we would not be able to provide these services to you.

The types of cookies we use

If you are setting the language, font size or a certain website version (e.g. high contrast mode), cookies for setting user interface are used for that. When the setting is complete, you are not required to specify your preferences when you next visit this website.

If you are using the website sections where you need to register in order to access them, we place an authentication cookie on your computer for that purpose. This allows you to leave and return to those sections without re-authentication.

NIS wants to find out about the way in which visitors use its websites, which is why it uses network analytics services. They register the number of visitors and provide us with general information about their behaviour, such as key words entered into the browser that direct the user to our website, the average time that a user spends on the website and the number of pages browsed by a user. For this purpose, we place the so-called first-party analytics cookie on your computer.

To monitor network statistics, we may also use services like Google Analytics. In that case, Google places the so-called third-party cookie on your computer. Such a cookie is also placed when we use Google maps.

All data collected by these cookies is stored and managed by NIS or its affiliates in the countries where the company operates.
For any additional information or contact with NIS, please refer to our Privacy Protection Policy.
