Our business
We’re all one team
From our Board to our frontline colleagues, each one of us makes Standard Chartered what it is.
Overseeing our strategy
Our Board is responsible for our long-term success and leads the Group within a framework of effective controls.
It sets and approves our strategic direction, ensures we have the resources to realise our ambitions, and also weighs the impact of its decisions on all stakeholders: our team, shareholders, regulators, clients, suppliers, the environment and the communities where we operate.
Our five Board committees play a crucial supporting role. Each is made up of non-executive directors, and our Audit and Board Risk Committees gain enhanced insight with the help of two additional external advisors.
