 management present at least twice a year and may schedule additional meetings as they deem appropriate. These sessions are led by Match Group’s independent Chairman of the Board. The independent membership of the Audit, Compensation and Human Resources, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees ensures that directors with no ties to management are charged with oversight for all financial reporting and executive compensation related decisions, as well as for recommending candidates for Board membership and oversight of governance practices and policies. At each regularly scheduled Board meeting, the Chairperson of each of these committees provides the full Board with an update of all significant matters discussed, reviewed, considered and/or approved by the relevant committee since the last regularly scheduled Board meeting.

Mr. McInerney has served as independent Chairman of the Board since May 2021. Our Board currently believes that the roles of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer should be separated in recognition of the different responsibilities between the two roles. Mr. McInerney, as independent Chairman, leads the Board in its oversight and management role, including with respect to risk oversight, while Mr. Rascoff, our Chief Executive Officer, focuses on managing the Company’s operations and strategic planning on a day-to-day basis. Mr. McInerney’s other responsibilities include, among others, setting Board meeting agendas, leading Board meetings and executive sessions, and communicating feedback to and advising Mr. Rascoff.

We believe that it is in the best interests of our stockholders for the Board to review and make a determination regarding the separation or combination of these roles each time it elects a new Chairperson or appoints a Chief Executive Officer.

Risk Oversight . The Board’s role in risk oversight of the Company is consistent with Match Group’s leadership structure, with the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management having responsibility for assessing and managing the Company’s risk exposure, and the Board and its committees providing oversight in connection with these efforts. Match Group management, including our Senior Vice President, Internal Audit, and our Risk, Controls and Compliance team, is responsible for assessing and managing Match Group’s exposure to various risks on a day‑to‑day basis, which responsibilities include the conduct of an enterprise risk assessment of short-term, long-term and emerging risks, testing of key controls and procedures, and creation of appropriate risk management programs and policies. Management has developed and implemented guidelines and policies to identify, assess and manage significant risks facing the Company. In developing this framework, Match Group recognizes that leadership and success are impossible without taking risks
