A gala ceremony was held at the 9th Russian Corporate Governance Forum in Moscow to recognize the winners of the 14th Director of the Year awards.

Member of the LSR Group Board of Directors Vitaliy Podolskiy (Chairman of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee) received an award for his personal contribution to the development and promotion of high standards of corporate governance facilitating effective strategic business development. He was named Best Independent Director for his achievements in 2019.

LSR Group representatives were once again ranked among the winners of the Director of the Year award. Chairman of the LSR Group Board of Directors Dmitri Gontcharov was included among the 25 Best Chairs of Boards of Directors, while Head of the LSR Group Corporate Capital Department Elena Chistyakova was named one of the 25 Best Corporate Secretaries.

The national Director of the Year awards were established in 2006. Their rankings of directors of corporate governance have been published since 2012. They are compiled using a method that includes processing and analysing the following figures: the overall length of experience of candidates on boards of directors, their experience in companies with Russian and international listings, and their experience in companies with large market capitalisation. Candidates’ contributions to the development of corporate governance in Russia are also taken into account. The event has long been organized by Russia’s Independent Directors’ Association and the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs in partnership with PwC.
