Document overview

In order to improve corporate governance and introduce the best corporate governance practices in the Russian financial market, the Bank of Russia recommends that PJSCs apply the Regulations on the Board of Directors and Committees of the Board of Directors of PJSCs.

In particular, the regulation on the board of directors establishes that it exercises general management of the company's activities. The exception is the issues referred by the Law on joint-stock companies to the competence of the general meeting of shareholders.

The competence of the board of directors is determined by the above Law, other federal laws and the charter of the company. Issues related to its competence cannot be transferred to the decision of the executive bodies of the company.

The Regulations on Committees of the Board of Directors of PJSC (on audit, on nominations, on remuneration) establish that they are collegiate advisory bodies established to facilitate the effective performance of the functions of the Board of Directors in the relevant areas of the company's activities.

Committees are not management bodies of the company. They provide the board of directors with opinions and recommendations on the issues under consideration within their competence, an annual report on the work done and a report on their activities (at any time at the request of the board of directors).

The competence and responsibilities of the committees, their composition, work procedure, etc. have been determined.

The Regulation on the Board of Directors of a JSC refers to the internal documents of a legal entity and determines the rules of procedure for the work of the Board of Directors of a JSC. Further, in our article we will describe what information the named document should contain and how it should be drawn up and stored in the future.

The Regulations on the Board of Directors (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations) is a local normative act of a joint-stock company (hereinafter referred to as JSC), which determines the status of the board of directors, its competence, the procedure for choosing its members, as well as their rights and obligations.

Note! The named document is not directly mentioned in the text of the Federal Law “On Joint Stock Companies” dated December 26, 1995 No. 208-FZ (hereinafter referred to as Law No. 208-FZ). At the same time, the regulation is one of the internal documents of the JSC and is adopted by decision of the general meeting of shareholders (clause 19, clause 1, article 48 of Law No. 208-FZ).

Local regulations of JSC can be divided into 2 large groups:

  • obligatory for development and approval due to the requirements of the legislation;
  • optional.

The first group includes:

  • charter (Article 11 of Law No. 208-FZ);
  • regulation on the audit commission (auditor) (clause 2, article 85 of law No. 208-FZ);
  • regulation on the collegial executive body of the joint-stock company - if there is such an executive body (clause 1, article 70 of law No. 208-FZ);
  • Regulations on the branch or representative office of JSC.

Important! The Regulation does not apply to the mandatory internal documents of the JSC due to the requirements of the legislation. In the absence of the named document, resolution of all issues, one way or another related to the regulation of the activities of the board of directors, is carried out on the basis of the rules established by law.

If, due to the discretion of certain norms of Law No. 208-FZ, a JSC has the right to independently determine some features of a particular procedure (for example, indicate the possibility of making decisions by the company's board of directors by absentee voting, etc.), then such subtleties may be fixed in the charter of JSC. At the same time, there is no need to duplicate them in the position.

The choice of the design and content of internal regulatory documentation refers to issues that fall within the competence of the JSC bodies.

Conclusion! Thus, the JSC independently determines what information should be reflected in the regulation. Of course, the rules included in it should not contradict the current legislation.

One of the simplest options for the structure of the future provision is in accordance with the sequence of the relevant norms of Ch. VIII Law No. 208-FZ. Thus, an example position structure might look like this:

  • general provisions - this paragraph usually indicates the scope of the provision on the board of directors of the JSC (hereinafter also referred to as the council), the scope of competence of the named body of the JSC, the list of regulatory documents that were used in the development of this internal document, etc. ;
  • competence of the council - see art. 65 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • election of the council and termination of powers of its members - see Art. 66 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • chairman of the council - see art. 67 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • AO council meeting - see art. 68 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • secretary of the council and office of the secretary of the council - the procedure for electing the secretary and his functions are indicated;
  • minutes of the meeting of the Board of JSC - see paragraph 4 of Art. 68 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • adoption of decisions by the council and the rules for their entry into force - see Art. 68 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • responsibility of members of the Board of JSC - see art. 71 of Law No. 208-FZ;
  • change and addition of the provision - it is usually indicated that all changes and additions must also be approved by the decision of the meeting of shareholders of the JSC.

The template can be downloaded from this link: The regulation on the board of directors of a JSC is an example.

Depending on the specifics of the conduct of activities by a particular organization, the content of the provision may be supplemented by some specific sections. Such sections may include, for example:

  • council work plan;
  • rules for convening council meetings;
  • regulations for conducting absentee voting;
  • the procedure for issuing council decisions;
  • remuneration to council members and compensation for expenses related to the performance of their duties, etc.

Note! The organization is entitled to independently determine the extent to which it should regulate in detail a certain aspect of the council's activities by fixing the relevant rules in the regulation.

obligatory unified / standard form there is no such document and specific requirements for its execution by the current legislation. The Bank of Russia, in its letter No. IN-015-52/66 dated September 15, 2016, proposed a sample model provision on the Board of Directors and recommended its application for PJSC in order to improve corporate governance in the Russian financial market. When compiling the document, you can also use the Guidelines for members of the Board of Directors financial organization, recommended by the Bank of Russia in letter No. IN-06-28/18 dated February 28, 2019.

In accordance with established practice, one can give the following recommendations according to the design and structure of the provision:

  1. Title page - on it in the upper right corner there should be a mark on the approval of the document, namely:
  • The word "approved".
  • The name of the document on the basis of which the regulation was approved (for example, the minutes of the annual meeting of shareholders of the JSC, etc., indicating the details of such a document - the date of execution and, if available, the number). For details, see the article "Minutes of the annual general meeting of shareholders (sample 2018 - 2019)";
  • Signature of an authorized person (for example, the chairman of the meeting) with a transcript.
  • Seal of the organization (if the organization has one).

Also, the title page contains the name of the document itself and the name of the organization. The name of the place and the year of its publication are indicated at the bottom of the sheet.

  1. The main content of the position.
  2. Applications to the position. Typically, the applications contain samples of documents that the board of directors uses in its activities.

Important! The provision, together with the relevant annexes, must be numbered and linked. The number of sheets, the signature of the authorized person and the seal of the organization (if any) are affixed on the binding.

Contradictions between the content of the charter of the JSC and the regulation on the board of directors

The requirements of the charter are mandatory and must be complied with by all management bodies of the JSC (Article 11 of Law No. 208-FZ). The internal documents of the JSC, which include the regulation on the board of directors, are also binding - as documents adopted on the basis of a decision of the competent bodies of the JSC.

When compiling internal documentation, it is necessary to ensure that the powers of various JSC bodies do not overlap, and the relevant regulatory documents do not contradict each other.

In this case, if the wording of the charter of the JSC and the provisions are not agreed upon, it should be taken into account that the charter has greater legal force, due to the presence of direct indications of this in the law.

The courts also make a choice in favor of the charter as a document of great legal force, which is confirmed judicial practice, for example, in case of discrepancies in the named internal documents of JSC:

  • in terms of the procedure for voting on the issue of electing the executive body of the JSC (see the decision of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation dated January 29, 2010 in case No. A56-29710 / 2008);
  • in terms of the timing of notification of members of the board of directors of JSC about holding a meeting of the said body (see the decision of the Arbitration Court of the Rostov Region dated December 26, 2011 in case No. A53-20428 / 2011);
  • in terms of determining the limits of the competence of the board of directors (see the resolution of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Volga-Vyatka District of July 10, 2013 in case No. A82-12026 / 2012), etc.

In accordance with paragraph 1 of Art. 89 of Law No. 208-FZ, the regulation on the board of directors must be kept by the JSC along with other internal documentation of the organization. Storage is carried out at the location of the executive body of the organization, the terms and procedure for it are determined by the provisions established by the Bank of Russia (clause 2 of the named article).

At the same time, the storage of documentation is organized by the sole executive body of JSC (clause 3.1 of the "Regulations on the procedure and terms of storage ...", approved by the Decree of the Federal Commission for the Securities Market of the Russian Federation dated July 16, 2003 No. 03-33 / ps (hereinafter referred to as Resolution No. 03-33 / ps )).

The position, as well as other documents, are stored in originals, and in case of loss of such - in the form of duly certified copies of the named documents. Moreover, in each case of loss or damage to the document, an appropriate act must be drawn up, which is subsequently attached to the copy of the document transferred for storage (clause 3.4 of Resolution No. 03-33 / ps).

Shelf life of the position:

  • constantly - at the place of approval;
  • 3 years - in other organizations (for example, in a shareholder organization) from the moment of replacement with new editions (see clause 57 of the “List of typical management ...”, approved by order of the Ministry of Culture of Russia dated August 25, 2010 No. 558).

So, the regulation on the board of directors is an internal regulatory act of the organization that regulates the activities of the board of directors in a JSC. The named internal document is not obligatory for AO. The legal entity determines the content and format of the provision independently, taking into account the requirements of the current legislation.

In the absence of an approved regulation on the board of directors, the JSC must be guided by the existing norms of the law and the rules included in the charter.
