We are committed to governance policies and practices so that shareholder and other stakeholder interests are represented in a thoughtful and independent manner. Sound principles of corporate governance are critical to obtaining and retaining the trust of investors. They are also vital in securing respect from other key stakeholders and interested parties, including our workforce, guests, suppliers, the communities in which we conduct business, government officials and the public-at-large.
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc operate under a dual listed company arrangement with primary stock listings in the United States and the United Kingdom. Accordingly, we implemented a single corporate governance framework consistent, to the extent possible, with the governance practices and requirements of both countries. While there are customs or practices that differ between the two countries, we believe our corporate governance framework effectively addresses the corporate governance requirements of both the United States and the United Kingdom.
Our corporate governance principles are set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the charters of our Board Committees. The actions described in these documents, which the Boards have reviewed and approved, implement applicable requirements, including the New York Stock Exchange listing requirements and, to the extent practicable, the United Kingdom Corporate Governance Code published by the United Kingdom Financial Reporting Council in July 2018, as well our own vision of good governance.
We will continue to monitor governance developments in the United States and the United Kingdom to ensure a vigorous and effective corporate governance framework of the highest international standards.
