What Is The Difference Between An Executive Director And A Nominee Director?
- Published: 11 December 2025
Executive directors run the company and make operational decisions; nominee directors are local, non-executive and ensure regulatory compliance.
Executive director duties include strategy and operations. Nominee directors do not manage day-to-day operations but share responsibility for ensuring compliance with laws.
