1. The task is to determine the minimum number of members required for a board (bestuur) in an AZL (Algemene Zorgverzekering Levensverzekering) according to Dutch law, as outlined in the provided text.
2. According to Article 2:140 of the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek), a board must consist of at least two members unless the articles of association provide otherwise.
3. However, the text specifies that for an AZL, the board must consist of at least three members, as stated in Article 2:140a BW.
4. This requirement is further reinforced by the fact that the board must include at least one member who is not employed by the company and has no direct or indirect interest in the company’s operations — this is known as an “onafhankelijk bestuurslid” (independent board member).
5. Therefore, the minimum number of members required for the board of an AZL is three: two regular members and at least one independent member.
6. The answer is 3.
