Corporate Responsibility governance

ANZ Corporate Responsibility (CR) Committee is a strategic leadership body with Management Board mandate. It performs an oversight and advisory role in achieving the Group's CR agenda and priorities.

The Committee is made up of Group Executives with accountability for the businesses and issues most relevant to our CR strategy. The Committee is chaired by ANZ’s Chief Executive Officer, Mike Smith.

The Committee meets six times per annum and its responsibilities include:

identifying and monitoring current and emerging corporate responsibility risks and opportunities
reporting and advising ANZ's Management Board on strategies to respond to these risks and opportunities
agreeing ANZ's public corporate responsibility targets and commitments in consultation with the Management Board
integrating corporate responsibility policies and management systems across the business
reviewing and approving all significant programs and expenditure relevant to our corporate responsibility strategy.

These responsibilities have been formalised our ANZ CR Committee Charter (PDF 34kB).

Progress on strategies to achieve the Group's Corporate Responsibility objectives are reported bi-monthly to the Management Board and quarterly to the ANZ Board of Directors.
