MIoD Directors Forum

About the Directors Forum

To support the MIoD in building more effective boards and to promote good corporate governance, the Directors Forum (the Forum) was set up in 2012, in collaboration with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Mauritius. The Forum acts as an Advisory Council and Technical Committee to the MIoD.

The Forum’s objectives are to:

  • identify issues which are of most concern to directors,
  • produce position papers and, through consultation with Government and regulators, contribute to policy development,
  • be the voice for governance and directors’ issues in Mauritius,
  • develop guidance on governance issues in Mauritius.

Collectively, the Forum is made up of members who are respected local directors and professionals with backgrounds in law, economics, finance and accounting, corporate and securities regulation, business and academia, in the private and public sectors.

Artificial Intelligence 
Promotion and Governance

This position paper presents a strategic perspective on the promotion and governance of Artificial Intelligence (AI), offering Boards of Directors a comprehensive guide to navigating its transformative potential. It explores the dual nature of AI, its capacity to unlock competitive advantage and operational efficiency, and the risks it introduces if not governed responsibly. The paper identifies key opportunities, including the deployment of AI to enhance workforce productivity, accelerate product development, and reshape business models. These benefits, however, must be pursued with a clear understanding of the ethical, legal, and operational risks involved.
