Governance

AngloGold Ashanti’s places significant prominence on its commitment to sound governance principles to effectively support operations in a rapidly changing macroeconomic environment.

AngloGold Ashanti is a member of and a signatory to:

We maintain our high standards of business integrity through robust governance structures and processes, guided by our values-driven culture and Code of Business Principles and Ethics (Code).

Our Code reinforces a culture of performance with integrity by setting out expectations for the conduct of directors, officers, employees, contractors and consultants, and affirming a commitment to the highest standards of integrity and ethics in the conduct of business.

AngloGold Ashanti’s board, which has ultimate responsibility for corporate governance, is guided by its commitment to ensuring sound governance principles and practices. The board is supported by committees, to which it delegates certain functions without abdicating any of its own responsibilities. These are:

• Audit and Risk Committee
• Compensation and Human Resources Committee
• Social, Ethics and Sustainability Committee
• Nominations and Governance Committee

In a world of deepening polarisation, risk management becomes central to navigating the terrain ahead. Risk management is inseparable from good management and underpins trust, safe and stable operations, asset performance, and disciplined investment and growth.

Our risk management framework is based on ISO 31000, with all operations/business units capturing applicable operational risks in a Group-wide risk system.
