While making management decisions, the board is guided by six main principles. 1. First of all, it is a common principle of legitimacy, which means that management of each separate firm is responsible for compliance of firm's business with all legislative requirements. It is management who must take care of internal control and risk management in organization. In this case participation of state authority in internal business of the company is minimized. 2. Principle of efficiency is in operation in every organization and declares that all resources must be utilized effectively.
