Strong governance practices are embedded in our DNA.
Fortis is proud to be ranked number one in The Globe and Mail's annual governance survey of 226 companies and trusts in the S&P/TSX Composite Index. At Fortis, strong governance practices are embedded in our DNA. Led by our qualified, effective and increasingly diverse board of directors, we know that good business starts with good governance. Our unique governance model is supported by majority-independent boards at most of our utilities and a consistent focus on best practices in key areas such as board composition, executive compensation and shareholder rights. Fortis is particularly proud of our work in advancing gender diversity. 54% of Fortis board members are women and 70% of Fortis utilities have women in the position of CEO or board chair.
