Corporate Governance
The Board is responsible to shareholders for creating
and delivering sustainable shareholder value through the
management of the Group’s business. This governance report
explains Prudential’s governance policies and practices, and
sets out how the Board manages the business for the benefit
of shareholders, promoting long-term shareholder interest.
The governance rules applicable to all UK companies
admitted to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority are
set out in the Combined Code, published by the Financial
Reporting Council in June 2003, and revised in 2006. The
directors believe that good corporate governance is central to
achieving the Group’s objectives and maximising shareholder
value, and are committed to high standards of corporate
governance. The Board supports the Combined Code,
and confirms that it has complied with all of the provisions
set out in Section 1 throughout the financial year ended
31 December 2007, and has applied the principles as set
out below and in the Directors’ Remuneration Report.
