Corporate Governance

Corporate governance is the system of rules, practices and processes by which a company is directed and controlled. The main pillars of Corporate Governance are Accountability, Fairness, Transparency and Independence. Corporate Governance is important to a company in order to be geared up for the following challenges:

  • Improved company performance – If management is about running the business, corporate governance is about seeing that it is run properly
  • Better access to external finance – Better governance earns better credit ratings for the company
  • Lower costs of capital – Better credit ratings result into lower interest rates on borrowings
  • Information and Communication – Reduced risks of corporate crisis and other risks associated to the business
  • Higher firm valuation – Overall good corporate governance will benefit the company in growing its firm valuation to optimum

We help companies address the top three governance challenges faced by the Directors including improving risk management oversight, assessing innovation and emerging competition, and confirming/ establishing company strategy.
