Group Governance

Rémy Cointreau group is administered by a Board of Directors which, since September 2004, has adopted a governance structure that separates the roles of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer. Competence and experience in the financial arena, the luxury goods sector and the management of large international companies are the selection criteria for Board members.

The presence of several members who are permanent residents in various other countries also lends a welcome international and cultural dimension to the Board of Directors’ work, either because they have performed a role outside of France during their career, or because they hold or have held one or more appointments in non-French companies.
