Abstract: Abstract We emphasize that a governance board with non-executive members of the board is a safeguarding instrument. The functions of the advisory role as well as the risk evaluation and approval are highly important when dealing with a request to launch an acquisition of another company. The non-executive members, however, have to carefully balance scrutinizing a proposal for hidden flaws against encouraging the management to pursue promising projects and accepting justifiable risks.
