The Fund, as a responsible corporate citizen, is committed to the highest levels of corporate governance, compliance and transparency. To this end, five dedicated Committees support the Board of Trustees in managing and monitoring the affairs of the Fund.

A combined assurance framework, with four levels of assurance, is followed. Management oversees the daily internal controls and implements the Board\u2019s strategy, the internal auditors assess the effectiveness of internal controls and risk management, the external auditors express an opinion on the financial statements and the actuary provides assurance on the solvency and sustainability of the pensioner and risk reserves. The Audit and Risk Committee applies a coordinated approach to the appropriate combined assurance provided.<\/p>
