Two independent directors will submit a monthly compliance and progress report to the BSEC The Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) has restructured the board of directors of Agni Systems Ltd in a move to protect the interest of investors and bring the company back to a sound business position. The securities regulator has nominated two distinguished individuals –Professor Mohammad Ridhwanul Haq of Institute of Business Administration of the University of Dhaka and Assistant Professor Mansura Akter of international business department at the same university – as independent directors of the internet service provider.
The BSEC has also instructed the company, which got listed on the stock exchanges in 2003, to nominate at least two or more shareholder directors, each holding a minimum of 2% shares in the company. Besides, it has directed the Investment Corporation of Bangladesh (ICB) to include a nominee in the board of directors of Agni Systems, since ICB is a shareholder of the company. Agni Systems was supposed to reshape its board within 45 working days as per the 30% shareholding rules, but the company failed to comply with the provision. Within 10 days of every month, the independent directors will submit a report of the previous month to the regulator, mentioning the company's compliance and progress status. BSEC Commissioner Dr Shaikh Shamsuddin Ahmed said, "We have nominated two independent directors for the new board to develop the business of the company." "Now, they will take the responsibility of the company as watchdogs," he added.
