    Annual evaluation of the Board 

    Our Board of Directors is annually evaluated to identify opportunities for continuous improvement in its performance and governance, with the assistance of the Nominating and Governance Committee. The Board and Advisory Committee evaluation process is conducted with independence by a specialized external consulting firm, who assess their performance as collegiate bodies (consolidated results are presented and discussed with the body) and as individuals (in this case, the individual assessment results are shared with the Chairman for subsequent individual feedback). 

    At the end of 2023, the Board of Directors and its Advisory Committees had their performance assessment process started, with completion expected for the first few months of 2024. The results will point out improvement priorities and underpin action plans to enhance their work.

    Executive Committee 

    Executive Committee 

    The President (CEO) and Executive Vice Presidents serve as legal representatives and are responsible for the day-to-day operational aspects of Vale. They are also in charge of the implementation of the policies and objectives set by the Board of Directors. All their duties are outlined in the Bylaws, which also state that the Executive Committee must have a minimum of six and a maximum of eleven members. 

    The Board of Directors elects the President and Executive Vice Presidents for a three-year term, with the power to remove them at any time. According to Brazilian law, they may be resident or domiciled abroad, subject to the appointment of a representative resident in the country. They meet fortnightly, with the possibility of convening extraordinary meetings at the initiative of any of its members. 

    The Executive Committee is supported by five risk management advisory committees, which are: 

    1) operational risks;  
    2) geotechnical risks;  
    3) strategic, financial, and cyber risks;  
    4) compliance, institutional relations, and communication risks; and 
    5) sustainability risks.
