CONCERNING
GOOD CORPORATE GOVERNANCE FOR INSURANCE COMPANIES
I. GENERAL
Good Corporate Governance is one of the pillars in building a healthy economic condition. The implementation of Good Corporate Governance is closely related to the credibility of companies that operate and the economic climate in a country. The rapid development of the insurance industry must be supported by a conducive climate. In order to support the achievement of a conducive business climate and healthy business competition, it is important for the insurance industry to implement Good Corporate Governance. The implementation of Good Corporate Governance by the insurance industry is an important part of handling risk. If the implementation of corporate governance of Insurance Companies runs well, then risk management will also run effectively.
There are five main principles in Good Corporate Governance, namely:
Transparency (transparency), namely openness in the decision-making process and openness in the disclosure and provision of relevant information regarding the company, which is easily accessible by Stakeholders in accordance with insurance legislation as well as standards, principles, and practices of conducting healthy insurance business;
Accountability (accountability), namely the clarity of functions and the implementation of responsibility of the Insurance Company's Organ so that company performance can run transparently, fairly, effectively, and efficiently;
Responsibility (responsibility), namely the suitability of the management of Insurance Companies with insurance legislation and ethical values as well as standards, principles, and practices of conducting healthy insurance business;
Independence (independency), namely the state of Insurance Companies that are managed independently and professionally and free from Conflicts of Interest and influence or pressure from any party that is not in accordance with insurance legislation and ethical values as well as standards, principles, and practices of conducting healthy insurance business; and
Fairness and Justice (fairness), namely equality, balance, and justice in fulfilling the rights of Stakeholders arising from agreements, legislation, and ethical values as well as standards, principles, and practices of conducting healthy insurance business.
In implementing the aforementioned corporate governance principles, Insurance Companies are required to refer to a series of provisions, requirements, and guidelines related to the implementation of Good Corporate Governance. These guidelines are contained in OJK Regulation Number 2/POJK.05/2014 concerning Good Corporate Governance for Insurance Companies. However, with the enactment of Law Number 40 of 2014 concerning Insurance, particularly regarding the mandate in Article 11, adjustments and refinements are required, which are then included in this OJK Regulation.
In the implementation of Good Corporate Governance for Insurance Companies, it is also necessary to pay attention to legislation related to these provisions, including legislation applicable regarding limited liability companies, cooperatives, capital markets, and other provisions.
