Corporate governance

REH recognises the importance of good corporate governance. The establishment of a framework and culture of corporate governance is one of the primary responsibilities of the board. The board recognises that it is accountable to shareholders for the performance of the group and is responsible for ensuring REH operates in the best interests of shareholders

Corporate governance and good governance procedures can add to the performance of REH, create shareholder value and ensure confidence of the investment community.

Sustainability is defined as social, environmental and economic responsibility. We aspire to:

• meet or exceed our expected financial returns, and deliver long term shareholder value creation; and
• to act (or decline to act) considering the importance of individuals, communities, ecosystems and natural resources which could be impacted by our activities.
