Corporate governance

Establish robust governance practices to proactively manage risks and navigate uncertainty

Good corporate governance is a foundation attribute for a healthy organisation. Not only does it set the tone as to how the organisation operates and behaves both internally and to the market generally, it also defines the relationship between the Board of Directors, management and the rest of the organisation.

Key corporate governance issues can range from highly strategic topics like corporate strategy, IT oversight and innovation, board composition and risk oversight to more real-time topics like crisis management and shareholder activism. We support you with the governance knowledge to answer tough questions and tackle complex challenges.

How we can help you

Our network of professionals provides in-depth local experience and knowledge of corporate governance best practices and solutions as well as the benefits of an extensive global network. We can work with you to identify and assess your key governance and compliance risks, and integrate the management of these risks into your current processes. Our services include:

Board effectiveness/ trustee governance reviews

We help you conduct reviews of your board to determine their effectiveness in performing their duties. We tailor our review approach to your specific circumstances and work with you to plan a review that takes into account your business, its environment, and more. Our review of the board goes beyond the boardroom to include other stakeholders’ perspectives in understanding the true impact of the board’s activities.

Compliance framework reviews

In a time when trust is at a premium, we help your organisation meet contractual, regulatory and societal expectations to protect your reputation and goodwill through a thorough review of your compliance framework. Specifically, we look at the coverage of your enforcement and effectiveness of the compliance framework in your organisation. In turn, this minimises the risks of non-compliance and the costly consequences that come with it.

Compliance training

We provide training for your employees across all levels of the organisation to ensure that they are aware of important legislation/ regulations and policies/ standards/ leading practices and know how to comply with them. This helps to cultivate a culture of compliance, making it the norm.

Governance framework design and implementation

We help you design and implement robust governance frameworks that clearly show the structure, roles and responsibilities involved in governing an organisation, preventing conflicts of interest and ensuring transparency, fairness and accountability through the segregation of duties.

Mock regulator surveillance visits

We help you prepare for visits by regulators aimed at assessing your corporate governance through role playing and simulation. This equips you with confidence in explaining to regulators your organisation’s governance structures, practices and outcomes.
