Portfolio structure, board regulations, and code of conduct

The Board of Directors has defined its areas of responsibility and the resulting activities in a portfolio structure (in Dutch).

Board regulations (in Dutch) have been established regarding the tasks, powers, and working methods of the Board of Directors. That includes a code of conduct which the members of the Board of Directors must follow.

A protocol also sets out the working arrangements (in Dutch, pdf) between the Ministry of Economic Affairs and KVK.
