Strategic Corporate Governance Advice

Strong corporate governance is essential – not only for meeting legal and regulatory requirements,  but also as a critical foundation for fostering sustainable business growth and long-term success.

In today’s complex and highly regulated business environment, companies face numerous challenges. Board members are under increasing scrutiny regarding their composition, capabilities, effectiveness, and oversight functions. Companies must continually adapt their strategies to manage risks, comply with laws, engage with shareholders, and prepare for future uncertainties. As a result, building proactive, transparent relationships with all stakeholders—including regulators, investors, employees, suppliers, and the wider community—is more crucial than ever.

The group works with businesses across various sectors to navigate these challenges effectively and offers tailored solutions for managing governance risks. The group’s lawyers combine in-depth regulatory knowledge with extensive industry experience to help businesses at every stage of their lifecycle—developing strategies that address legal, reputational, and operational risks and ensuring they remain compliant and resilient.

Areas of assistance include:

  • attendance at board meetings as a strategic governance advisor and minuting meetings;
  • delivery of director duties and board training sessions;
  • providing advice on governance structures (including board composition, committee establishments and delegations of authority);
  • providing strategic governance advice in response to tax and regulatory investigations;
  • advising on corporate governance procedures and compliance policies; and
  • reputational management services.
