Governance

This section contains information on our Board of Directors, the Board committees and Executive Committee.

Laurentian Bank is recognized within the Canadian banking industry as a pioneer in corporate governance. Notably, it was the first (1987) to separate the functions of chairman of the Board of Directors from those of President and Chief Executive Officer. Moreover, its policies and corporate governance rules meet the highest standards of the Canadian banking and financial industry. All of the members of the Board of Directors, apart from the President and Chief Executive Officer, are independent and unaffiliated with management.
