143 GOVERNANCE Induction and Development To ensure that our Directors are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to fulfill their roles, we provide a comprehensive induction programme to all new Board members. In addition to receiving a range of information about our Group, new Directors are provided with a comprehensive Induction Handbook that includes essential documents such as meeting calendars, meeting agendas, Board Charter and Terms of Reference, and other documents related to their roles. To ensure that our Board remains up-to-date with the latest industry developments and regulatory requirements, we provide ongoing training and development support throughout the year. Our Directors can raise any training needs with the Chairman or the Company Secretary, which helps to ensure that the training programme meets the needs of the Board, Directors, and the business. We also encourage our Directors to request training on specific issues and have access to relevant external courses. As part of our commitment to sustainability and ESG, an in-house training programme for the Board was conducted in FYE 2023, which included presentations from external consultants on topics such as transition risks and sectoral opportunities. Our Directors have also attended various training programmes in the areas of sustainability, board leadership, governance, risk management, strategy, finance and industry outlook.
