Main focus of the work of the In a total of five meetings, the Supervisory Board deliberated at length on the performance and financial Supervisory Board position of the BMW Group, corporate planning, the composition of the Board of Management and risk management issues. The Supervisory Board made use of regular business status reports to keep abreast of business performance, including the degree to which stated objectives have been achieved. It also selected a number of topics for more in-depth review and discussion based on reports and planning documents pro- vided by the Board of Management. Two of the main areas of focus of the Supervisory Board in 2007 were currency management and the Board of Management’s decisions concerning the future strategic direction of the BMW Group. The Board of Management also kept the Supervisory Board informed of key performance indicators, personnel developments and other significant matters, both at scheduled meetings and at other times as the need arose. The Chairman of the Supervisory Board was also kept informed regularly and directly by the Chairman of the Board of Management of all major business transactions and projects. The growing need to reduce CO2 emissions in the transport sector, the challenges that this poses for the BMW Group as a premium car maker and the technical measures introduced by the Board of Management to reduce emissions and fuel consumption were reported on in detail by the Board of Management and discussed within the Supervisory Board. In the opinion of the Supervisory Board, the package of measures known as EfficientDynamics – designed to improve fuel economy whilst simultaneously emphasising agile and dynamic vehicle concepts – represents a clear competitive advantage for the BMW Group. For this reason, the Supervisory Board fully supports the Board of Management’s strategy to extend the BMW Group’s lead in this area. In this context, the Board of Management also reported to the Supervisory Board on one particular ground-breaking project which is looking, amongst other things, at new ways of achieving greater individual mobility in the world’s megacities. One meeting of the Supervisory Board was held at the Oxford plant, enabling the Supervisory Board to see at first hand the expansion measures undertaken at the plant. It was also given an insight into the integration of the new generation of MINI models into existing manufacturing structures and the benefits of the flexible working time model devised for the plant. After detailed consideration of the BMW Group’s long-term business plan, the Supervisory Board concurred with the Board of Management’s conclusion that the plan is feasible and formally gave its approval to the plan. 06 Report of the Supervisory Board As part of a special review of value-added and currency management within the BMW Group, the Board of Management provided the Supervisory Board with an overview of current and planned currency measures as well as natural hedging activities and explained the various alternatives available to the BMW Group. On the basis of this information, joint discussions were held on the future strategy in this area. The Supervisory Board meeting in September 2007 primarily involved a discussion of the Board of Manage- ment’s detailed report on the BMW Group’s strategy process. At the same meeting, the Supervisory Board also deliberated on and made its decisions regarding the composition of the Board of Management. The Supervisory Board was appreciative of the Board of Management’s in-depth review of the current busi- ness model and its thorough analysis of the options open to the BMW Group to achieve continued long-term growth.
