Axis auditors are elected by the annual general meeting for a period of four years. The company’s auditors are PricewaterhouseCoopers AB, with Ola Bjärehäll as Chief Auditor. Ola Bjärehäll was born in 1974 and has been an Authorized Public Accountant since 2004. PricewaterhouseCoopers AB have been Axis’ auditors since 1996 and Ola Bjärehäll since 2011.

According to item 2.1 of the Code, proposals for appointment and remuneration of auditors should be submitted by the company’s nominating committee. Axis’ board has, however, in deviation from the above-mentioned provision in the Code, decided that the board shall submit proposals to the annual general meeting with regard to both appointment and the remuneration of auditors. Such proposals shall be prepared by a group specially appointed by the board, comprising representatives from the board and Axis’ management. The reason for the deviation is that the above-mentioned group has particular experience of questions relating to appointment and remuneration of auditors. This competence is considered to be of benefit to Axis.
