The board of directors
The board of directors is made up of 10 members, which are chosen every year at the AGM. The chairman and vice-chairman are chosen from the elected board members. The board of directors usually meets 6 times per year and deals with Finance Denmark affairs that are a matter of principle.
The board of directors is legally competent to transact business when more than half of the board members are present. Each member has one vote and decisions are made based on simple majority voting. In cases of tied votes the chairman, or in their absence, the vice-chairman, has the casting vote. Board members as well as personal substitutes are chosen on a yearly basis. Board members are:
