Haha, I bet the person who wrote this question is a total corporate nerd. But I guess even us regular folks need to know this stuff. I'll go with C, it sounds the most plausible.

I agree, but I also think C could be correct because a supervisory board includes employee representatives.

Option A, definitely. The management board being all executives is a classic corporate structure. Why would they include the employees on the supervisory board? That's just asking for trouble!

Hmm, this is tricky. I'm leaning towards D, but I'm not completely sure. Maybe I should have paid more attention in my corporate governance class.

So, D is incorrect because it doesn't include the management board being made up of executive directors.
