Board Committees can enhance the effectiveness of Boards, both in their management of a licensee's risks, and in addressing potential conflicts of interest. In particular, three key areas where there is a need for checks and balances within the Board include: (a) the nomination of Directors; (b) the remuneration of Directors; and (c) the audit of the licensee's financial performance. These areas are typically addressed by, respectively, the Nominations Committee, the Remuneration Committee and the Audit Committee. Where a licensee's Board does not consider it necessary to create Board Committees, it must be prepared to give reasons for its decision to the CBB.
