MATRIX INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT 2024

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT STRENGTHENING CORPORATE GOVERNANCE The Group is cognisant of the principles of corporate governance revolving around four integral pillars – transparency, fairness, responsibility and risk management. On this basis, the Board continues to emphasise the critical importance of governance across the length and breadth of the Group. This underscores the importance of both the financial and non-financial compliance as a value driver for the long-term wellbeing of the Company. Matrix has long since adopted the globally recognised framework of Integrated Reporting (“IR”) and keeps itself updated on the latest requirements by regulatory and governance bodies. This is reflected in the Group’s strong reporting disclosure, working towards best practice for the industry. This augurs well for the Group’s stakeholders, giving a clear outline the Group management approaches, strategies and risks and opportunities, amongst others. THE GROUP IS COGNISANT OF THE PRINCIPLES OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REVOLVING AROUND FOUR INTEGRAL PILLARS – TRANSPARENCY FAIRNESS RESPONSIBILITY RISK MANAGEMENT To reinforce the Group commitment to governance, various initiatives were implemented in FY2024. This included formulating a Conflict of Interest Policy and upgrading the Board Charter to incorporate additional regulatory requirements. Matrix continues to uphold our unwavering commitment to gender diversity, looking beyond gender, ethnicity and affiliations. This is aptly reflected in the 44.4% achievement of women representation on the Board, aligning further with Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance (“MCCG”) 2021. We are proud that the Group has worked to firmly embed the tenets of good governance into our employees, setting the bar on high expectation of adhering to this as our way of life at Matrix. 1 2 3 4 Menara Syariah Jakarta KEY MESSAGES 33 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT 2024
