Corporate
Governance
At Opsimex corporate governance is a fundamental part of our operations. We are focused on transparency, ethics, and responsibility, with practices designed to promote shareholder trust, ensure regulatory compliance, and foster an organizational culture based on integrity and excellence. We have concrete policies, boards, and strategies implemented to ensure the effectiveness of our operations.
Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors is composed of six proprietary directors without designated alternates. According to our bylaws, the Board must have between five and twenty-one proprietary directors and an equal number of alternates. Directors are not required to be shareholders, but most proprietary and alternate directors must be of Mexican nationality and designated by Mexican shareholders.
During the annual shareholders’ meeting, the appointment or re-election of proprietary and alternate directors takes place. According to the Securities Market Law (LMV), which we adhere to in all our governance operations, the shareholders’ meeting must evaluate the directors’ independence. According to our bylaws, at least 25% of directors must be independent; however, we currently have 50% independent directors, exceeding the legal requirement and reflecting our commitment to transparency.
Board members are appointed for one year. Nonetheless, the General Law of Commercial Companies (LGSM) states that directors will continue in office for up to thirty days after their terms expire if their successors have not been appointed or have not assumed their roles. In specific situations, the Board can appoint interim directors, and the shareholders’ meeting can confirm these appointments or their corresponding successors.
Verónica Ramírez Villela and Eriván Urióstegui Hernández serve as secretary and deputy secretary of the Board of Directors, respectively, though they are not Board members.
There are no consanguinity or affinity relationships between the Board members and their executives.
