Economic Governance Pillar
Background
To be sustainable, our business must be profitable, but the profit cannot outplay the other two pillars. Profit at any cost is not at all what the economic pillar is about to us. Activities that fit under the economic pillar include compliance, proper governance and risk management. We sometimes refer to this pillar as the governance pillar, referring to good corporate governance. This means that our board of directors and management align with shareholders’ interests as well as that of the company’s community, value chains, and end-user customers. With regard to governance, investors will be delighted to know that our company uses accurate and transparent world class accounting systems and methods, and that stockholders are given an opportunity to vote on important issues. We assure investors that as Zimpapers, we avoid conflicts of interest in our choice of board members and we don’t engage in any illegal practices.
