October 02, 2024 – D&L Industries was recognized alongside other top Philippine publicly listed companies by the Institute of Corporate Directors (ICD) for its outstanding corporate governance practices based on the ASEAN Corporate Governance Scorecard (ACGS). It’s the 5th consecutive year that D&L Industries received such recognition from the ICD.
The ACGS measures the performance of the companies in the areas of facilitating the rights and the equitable treatment of shareholders, how they relate to their different stakeholders, ensuring transparency and accountability thru timely disclosure of material information, and how the board guides the company strategically, monitors the management, and ensures the board’s accountability to the company and the shareholders.
ICD is a non-stock, not-for-profit national association of corporate directors and other stakeholders engaged in corporate governance. Its mission is to champion good corporate governance and stewardship for the benefit of the society. It aims to be the key catalyst in the Philippine corporate governance ecosystem for inclusive and sustainable development.
“We are deeply honored to receive such prestigious recognition from the ICD,” remarked D&L President & CEO Alvin Lao. “This year, we received a two-arrow recognition, an improvement from last year’s one-arrow recognition which signifies our constant pursuit to be better as an organization,” Lao added. “At D&L, we see the value of maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance. We believe it is the cornerstone of building a sustainable and enduring organization,” Lao concluded.
