    Hi can you please clarify something.

    I came across the same question (or similar) in practice questions, with 2 contradicting answers.

    Board should have a balance of executive and NED is not a principle of OECD

    Then another question states:

    There should be a balance of executive and NED as part of Corporate Governance.

    Please explain the difference.

    Many thanks

    OECD guidance says nothing about NEDs. It does want effective leadership and in the to achieve that the UK code uses NEDs. Some other countries adopt other solutions. For example, Germany has a two-board system, one of which is a supervisory board.
