ADIA has established governance standards with defined policies, processes and systems that we have developed over many years to ensure accountability.

ADIA's Board of Directors comprises a Chairman and Managing Director who, together with other Board members, are appointed by a decree of the Ruler of the Emirate.

The Board holds primary responsibility for the implementation of ADIA's strategy in accordance with Law (5) of 1981 of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. It also oversees ADIA's financial performance and the activities of management. The Board does not involve itself in ADIA's investment and operational decisions, for which the Managing Director is responsible under the law.
