The Company has been handed over by
the various stakeholders in trust and the Board of Directors are the trustees
of these stakeholders and owe a responsibility to ensure that the organisation
is managed in a manner that protects and furthers the interest of our
stakeholders.
At the core of Corporate Governance is the role of the
Board of Directors in overseeing how management serves the long-term
interests of shareowners and other stakeholders. An active, informed,
independent and involved Board is essential for ensuring Bayer's integrity,
transparency and long-term strength.
The Bayer CropScience Code of Conduct for Directors was approved and
adopted by the Board at its meeting held on 24th March, 2005
