The Board defines the duties of the Audit Committee in the charter confirmed for the Committee. The Audit Committee monitors among other things the reporting process of financial statements and interim reports, supervises the financial reporting process, and monitors and evaluates the efficiency of the internal control, internal audit and risk management systems.
