Corporate Governance & Management

The fundamental elements of BASF SE’s corporate governance system are: its two-tier management system, with a transparent and clear separation of company management and supervision between BASF’s Board of Executive Directors and the Supervisory Board; the equal representation of shareholders and employee representatives on the Supervisory Board; and the shareholders’ rights of coadministration and supervision at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.
