Turn the raw legal text into a practical explanation grounded in Life Insurance (prudential standards) determination No. 2 of 2008 - Prudential Standard LPS 510 - Governance.
The Board of a life company must have in place a formal policy on Board renewal. This policy must provide details of how the Board intends to renew itself in order to ensure it remains open to new ideas and independent thinking, while retaining adequate expertise. The policy must give consideration to whether directors have served on the Board for a period which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with their ability to act in the best interests of the life company.
