## About this tender

### THIS IS A CONTRACT AWARD NOTICE

The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) regulates auditors, accountants and actuaries and sets the UK's Corporate Governance and Stewardship Codes. We seek to promote transparency and integrity in business; our work is aimed at investors and others who rely on company accounts, audit, and high-quality risk management. As the Competent Authority for audit in the UK, the FRC sets auditing and ethical standards and monitors and enforces audit quality.

### Role of the Board

The Board of the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) is made up of non-executive and executive directors and is collectively responsible for the long-term success of the FRC. All Board Members, including the CEO and Chairman, are appointed by the Secretary of State for Business and Trade.

The Board's role is to provide strategic leadership of the FRC within a framework of prudent and effective controls which enables risk to be assessed and managed. The Board sets the FRC's strategic aims, ensures that the necessary financial and human resources are in place for the FRC to meet its objectives and reviews management performance.

The Board also sets the FRC's values and culture and ensures that its obligations to its stakeholders and others are understood and met. All directors must act in what they consider to be the best interests of the FRC, consistent with their statutory duties.

The Board delegates some of its responsibilities to its five Committees to carry out on its behalf. Further information about the FRC Board role and structure can be found on our website [frc.org.uk](https://www.frc.org.uk/about-the-frc/structure-of-the-frc/frc-board)
