Overview  

In today’s uncertain economic climate, strong corporate governance is more than just a compliance exercise; it is a strategic necessity! With tighter regulations on beneficial ownership, a growing demand for ethical leadership and heightened risks of misconduct, weak governance can undermine an organisation’s reputation and threaten its existence.
