A combined one-third independence of
the board of directors and the board of
statutory auditors, at least two
independent outside directors
One-third
If a company fails to maintain the Glass Lewis board independence requirements, we will generally recommend voting against
the chair of the board under a two tire or one-tier with one-committee structure; or
the nominating committee chair under a one-tier with three-committee structure.
We continue to require a board of statutory auditors to have a majority of independent members.
