Corporate governance

We offer comprehensive counsel and representation to both public and private companies, concerning the regulatory landscape and best practices for corporate governance. We assist clients with implementing new governance statutes, rules and regulations. We aid in auditing compliance, evaluating disclosure issues, investigating allegations of wrongdoing, and responding to civil, administrative or criminal actions.
We also have ample experience on advising best practices for corporate governance issues. We advise clients on:

• Specifying the distribution of rights and responsibilities for stakeholders, board members, committees and managers.
• Specifying the rules and establishing procedures for making decisions among stakeholders, board members, committees, managers and auditors.
• Implementing structures for corporate governance to meet the shareholders’ objectives.

From an institutional investor’s perspective, we also recognise and advise investors on the importance of governance as a mechanism for monitoring the actions, policies and decisions of corporations. This is implemented in order to achieve an alignment of interests among stakeholders.
