DTEK holds itself to the very highest standards of corporate governance

We see business integrity and the strongest possible safeguards as fundamental to DTEK’s business performance.

We are committed to achieving business objectives through the sustainable supply of energy, while maintaining the highest standards of health, safety, and environmental stewardship. A focus on safety, transparency, integrity, and teamwork guides every aspect of our operations.

To ensure robust corporate governance, DTEK has established comprehensive policies, procedures, and systems that promote accountability and compliance. We regularly review and update these governance frameworks to align with evolving industry standards and regulatory requirements.

Through these efforts, DTEK strives to uphold strong governance practices that support sustainable growth and foster trust among our stakeholders.

“Ukraine can only rebuild with strong support from international partners, and that support depends on trust. At DTEK, our commitment to transparent governance and zero tolerance for corruption is absolute. This is not a compliance measure, but the foundation of how we build lasting partnerships and create sustainable value.”

corporate governance
Corporate governance encompasses the relationships between supervisory boards, management boards, shareholders and other stakeholders.

This governance structure outlines how DTEK’s objectives are set, the strategies for achieving them, and the mechanisms for monitoring performance.

Effective corporate governance ensures that decision-making processes are transparent and well-structured, responsibilities are clearly defined, and conflicts of interest are minimised. It also involves establishing reliable internal controls and risk management practices to promote transparency and accountability. This enables DTEK to maintain integrity and trust while pursuing its goals.

DTEK continuously develops its corporate governance system to ensure changes in business and social needs are always considered. This approach allows for the development of new and existing business areas in line with both the long-term development strategy and DTEK’s sustainability strategy.
