Corporate Governance - Highlights

Corp. Governance | Management | Board of Directors | Committee Composition The corporate culture of TECO Energy, Inc. is based on integrity and sound business ethics. We have longstanding policies and practices that provide the framework for the ethical operation of the Company, protect the shareholders’ interests, and ensure compliance with the law and requirements of the New York Stock Exchange. For example, the Standards of Integrity, which serves as our code of conduct, our formalized corporate compliance plan, and our internal audit function have existed for many years. The vast majority of our directors have been independent and our Audit, Compensation, and Governance and Nominating Committees have been comprised exclusively of independent directors, dating back to a time long before these became requirements. We have confirmed our commitment to strong corporate governance practices through the Board’s adoption of Corporate Governance Guidelines and new charters for the Audit, Compensation, and Governance and Nominating Committees, each of which is available on this website.
