Corporate governance

Transurban is committed to best practice corporate governance, transparency and accountability.  This is essential for the long term performance and sustainability of the business, and to protect and enhance the interests of security holders and other stakeholders.

Transurban’s governance framework plays a critical role in helping the business deliver on its strategy. It provides the structure through which business objectives are set, performance is monitored, and risks are managed. It includes a framework for decision making across the business and provides guidance on the standards of behaviour expected of Transurban's people.

Transurban regularly reviews its governance arrangements, and developments in market practice, expectations and regulation.  Transurban complies with the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (3rd Edition).

The key aspects of Transurban’s governance framework and main governance practices for the year ended 30 June 2018 are outlined in the 2018 Corporate Governance Statement. Transurban's ASX Appendix 4G, which is a checklist cross-referencing the 3rd Edition ASX Recommendations to the relevant disclosures in Transurban's Corporate Governance Statement, Transurban’s 2018 Annual Report and Transurban's website, was lodged with the ASX on 7 September 2018.
