The Governance Board of The Zein Group Holding Company stands as the sovereign custodial body entrusted with preserving the integrity, continuity, and strategic vision of the Company. Established to harmonize the family legacy with institutional rigor, the Board safeguards the family’s assets, nurtures strategic investments, and ensures that the principles upon which the Company was founded remain inviolate.
Othman El Zein, as Chairman, presides over this body with unwavering commitment to integrity, impartiality, and principled decision-making. Under his stewardship, the Board orchestrates the delicate balance between oversight and execution, ensuring that every strategic choice reflects both ethical responsibility and long-term sustainability.
While the Board may include select members of the Executive Board, this inclusion is guided by prudence and discretion, designed to bridge operational insight with strategic stewardship without compromising independence. The governance framework thus fosters:

• The separation of ownership from management, guaranteeing decisions are made with clarity, objectivity, and foresight.
• The preservation of the Company across generations, through structured succession and institutional continuity.
• Vigilant oversight of regulatory, financial, and strategic imperatives, ensuring alignment with global standards and local compliance.
• The cultivation of family values within all investment and operational undertakings, maintaining a lineage of purpose and ethics.
• The enhancement of trust and credibility with partners, sovereign institutions, and the international community.

In essence, the Governance Board is not merely an administrative organ; it is a philosophical and strategic sanctuary, where legacy, ethics, and prudence converge to guide the Company through the complexities of modern enterprise, while preserving the timeless principles of its founding family.
