Wang Shi, Niu Gensheng And Other Independent Celebrities Are Still Doubtful.

Investors' impression of independent directors is speaking at regular meetings of listed companies such as board of directors and shareholders' meeting, and then sign a letter of commitment to receive remuneration from the board of directors.

In recent years, with the emergence and development of the listed companies, the board of directors system has returned to the public view.

Researchers in the industry say that the establishment of a sole agency is to ensure the independence of listed companies. Without affecting the independence of listed companies, diversification of independent directors will help the development of listed companies.

Landing on small plates in August 2010.

At that time, in the list of independent directors of the US state, Vanke's Wang Shi and Mengniu's Niu Gensheng were listed respectively, and the two term of office was from November 2007 to November 2010.

Statistics show that Wang Shi received a salary of 395 thousand and 200 yuan in 2011 when he worked in the United States.

However, due to the macroeconomic impact, the United States apparel

Problems are gradually emerging.

As early as 2009, the United States was accused of stock up to 900 million.

In 2011, the annual report revealed that there were 2 billion 560 million yuan in inventory.

This year's half year report has changed to 1 billion 750 million yuan.

While the United States has digested 800 million yuan inventory, the media reported that Zhou Chengjian, the chairman of the board, controls 317 million of the purchase of AI sang bang, and Zhou Chengjian's relatives also contributed two thousand to about thirty million inventory.

The media also quoted the views of the stakeholders, and questioned Metersbonwe's franchisee's operation status, revenue recognition principle, inventory changes and reasons for personnel changes.

There are problems in the operation of the listed companies. As a member of the board of directors, the listed companies are also pushed to the top of the wind.

In fact, apart from Smith Barney, Wang Shi also serves as an independent director in Hongkong or overseas listed companies such as Huarun land, Sohu, Jianye real estate and modern communication.

Since May 2005, Wang Shi has been an independent non-executive director of Sohu.

The information submitted by Sohu to the securities and Futures Commission shows that Sohu paid $10 thousand per person to the non employee directors in 2005 and 2006 respectively, but from 2007, the cash reward turned into equity reward.

Indispensable duties of independent directors

Chief executive of the board of directors of Hongkong, China, said in an interview that the sole purpose of the board of directors of a listed company was to enhance the independence of the listed companies and maintain the independence of the public shareholders. "But if there are problems in the performance or fundamental aspects of the listed companies, according to the legal provisions, independent directors do not have obligations for the operation of listed companies."

In addition, Ji Hua also said that when major issues were deliberated by listed companies, independent directors also had the right to develop major events.

According to Ji Hua, compared with overseas markets, there is still a lack of independent director system in domestic listed companies.

If duties are concerned, the task of independent directors is to maintain the independence of listed companies, and to set up independent directors in the board of directors system is to ensure that the power of controlling shareholders will not be strong in the board of directors, but also can balance the interests between directors of the board.

For cross industry recruitment of independent directors, industry experts say that without affecting the independence of listed companies, diversification of independent directors will help the development of listed companies.

According to Ji Hua, at present, the public has misunderstood the identity of the independent director. He thinks that independent directors should be experts in the industry of listed companies. "The reality is that there is a widespread phenomenon of independent directors of listed companies across the industry. This situation can not only guarantee the independence of the company, but also enrich the role of the independent director."

"Take Hong Kong listed companies as an example, independent directors and other members of the board of directors constitute a good complementary relationship.

In addition to the top management of the company, the board of directors of the listed companies in Hongkong also stipulates that people in the legal, financial and other industries need to be set up to ensure better supervision of the board during its operation.

Ji Hua explains so.

Celebrity effect of independent directors

Opening the independent director files of A shares is often shaken by the background of some celebrities.

For example, Jenny, Shipley, the current independent director of the Construction Bank, served as Prime Minister of New Zealand. Liang Jinsong, a former financial secretary of Hongkong, has worked as an independent director of ICBC for nearly 7 years.

In this way, there are many celebrities in A share listed companies.

But for the phenomenon of celebrity independence, experts in the industry have different views.

According to the viewpoint of the board of directors, the listed companies should devote themselves to business development rather than devote themselves to the celebrity effect.

"In the board of directors, the seats of independent directors are very valuable. If the duties of independent directors are mere words, the independent directors will lose their functions."

Ji Hua believes that because of the celebrity effect to choose independent directors, listed companies are more concerned about the company's reputation, rather than the future development of the company.

In the circle of listed companies, the "high salary" of independent directors is an open secret.

Among the listed companies visited by the investment bulletin board, independent directors are usually university professors or legal professionals. Most of the directors will also hold positions in many listed companies.

Investors' impression of independent directors only speaks at the regular meetings of the listed companies such as the board of directors and shareholders' meetings, and then signs a letter of commitment, so that they can receive remuneration on the board.

However, for the "high salary" of independent directors, experts in the industry still disagree.

According to Ji Hua, taking the overseas market as a contrast, the remuneration of independent directors of domestic listed companies is not high. According to the statistics of the board of directors Research Institute, in 2011, the average annual salary of the directors of A share listed companies was about 100 thousand yuan, and some of them were not as good as ordinary workers.

"The reason for the high salaries of independent directors is mainly that the high salary groups are concentrated in banks and other financial listed companies.

In fact, the remuneration of management or board members of financial listed companies is also among the best in all industries. If the industry has a high salary, it is also the result of rising prices.

Ji Hua believes that as regulators pay more and more attention to the board of directors of listed companies, the board of directors of A share listed companies will become more and more standardized.
