Corporate Governance

A structured governance system, with a high level of transparency and protection for shareholders and investors, is associated with lower capital costs for organizations and is a critical factor for the investment decision and consequent longevity of the business.

Integrity

The principles that guide Copel’s Integrity actions are based on the Company’s Values, on its Code of Conduct and on the United Nations Global Compact. The actions carried out by the responsible areas are compiled in the Integrity Program, whose purpose is the correct treatment of ethical and conduct deviations and mainly the implementation of anti-corruption measures.

Risk Management

Risk is the possibility that events may occur and affect the achievement of the business strategy and objectives. According to the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), organizations need to define their strategy and adjust it periodically, always paying attention to the opportunities for value creation and the challenges they encounter in pursuing them.
