The board of supervisors is the supervisory body of the company. A limited liability company with a small number of shareholders or a small scale may have one or two supervisors instead of a board of supervisors. The supervisor is mainly responsible for:

1, check the company's finances;

Supervisors may attend board meetings as nonvoting delegates and raise questions or suggestions on matters resolved by the board. The supervisor may investigate the abnormal operation of the company; If necessary, an accounting firm can be hired to assist in the work, and the expenses shall be borne by the company.

If the supervisor is not a shareholder of the company, he does not need to bear the obligation of shareholders' capital contribution, and accordingly he does not need to bear the business risks, and of course he does not have the right to pay dividends.

According to the Company Law, not everyone can be a supervisor, and supervisors also have the obligation of loyalty and diligence to the company. If they violate their obligations, they may face prosecution and liability for compensation.
