Every business likes to think they are a good corporate citizen. Well managed and well thought of by peers, stakeholders and the community. But good corporate governance is about more than just image and perception. It’s about your long-term success, meeting the standards of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and maintaining a healthy bottom line.
New rules and legislation to ensure corporate transparency and ethical behaviour have a resulted in web of regulation that can be hard to cut through - especially when you have a business to run.
That’s where we come in.
Every organisation today needs to be able to work with Boards, develop and implement systems and processes to manage continuous disclosure, minimise risk and adopt sensible solutions.
We use our regulatory and broad industry knowledge to present a clear path to best practice corporate governance. Our lawyers speak broadly on corporate governance issues and are significant contributors to the Chartered Secretaries of Australia’s Graduate Diploma in Applied Corporate Governance.
Our lawyers work closely with you on all aspects of governance:
- directors duties
- directors and officers liability and insurance
- establishment of compliance and risk management programs
- corporate governance frameworks and charters
- board performance
- related party transactions and conflicts of interest
- continuous disclosure
- annual reporting and corporate sustainability
- insider trading, and
- anti-money laundering.
Because it’s not just your reputation at stake.
