OUR 9-POINT SCORECARD
In line with our efforts to strengthen our foundations
for economic and transformational growth, we have
implemented a set of principles which will help to drive
sustainable growth and help fuel a robust performance.
Known as the ‘9-Point Scorecard’, this set of principles will
help us to ensure that we sustain solid and sustainable
profits; uphold prudent financial policies to ensure a
strong balance sheet; and develop an experienced and
professional management team to steer CMS forward.
We are also tasked with undertaking strong corporate
governance measures; enhancing ties and building
respect among the communities that we serve; as well
as gaining strong support from our shareholders and
bankers. Finally, we are to set our sights on private sector-
driven profitability; leverage on a strong SCORE play; and
develop an expertise that can help us expand globally in
the future.
