CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
A strong foundation of corporate governance is vital to the success of almost any organisation. Corporate governance encompasses a lot. It covers policies, procedures, and practices. All of them guide the management and oversight of a company, ensuring that it operates in a responsible, ethical, and legally compliant manner.
Effective corporate governance is essential in promoting trust and confidence among shareholders, employees, customers, and regulators.
Strong legal partners help improve and streamline corporate governance processes.
When is Corporate Governance Needed?
Every company, regardless of its size or industry, must adhere to some form of corporate governance. It is particularly crucial for:
- Publicly traded companies - they have a legal obligation to comply with strict governance regulations and to disclose relevant information to shareholders and regulators;
- Private companies – if they seek to attract investors, partners, or customers, who often require assurances of sound governance practices before engaging in business;
- Companies undergoing major transitions – this includes M&As, restructuring, or changes in leadership, which may necessitate a review and update of governance policies and procedures.
How Professional Attorneys Handle Corporate Governance
Professional attorneys play a vital role in ensuring that organisations maintain effective corporate governance practices.
Attorneys help organisations establish robust governance frameworks that address key areas such as board structure and composition, director responsibilities, risk management, and disclosure requirements. FORT’s attorneys also guide companies in meeting their legal and regulatory obligations.
Our team can also advise companies on effective communication with shareholders, including the proper handling and preparing documentation for annual meetings, proxy statements, and shareholder proposals.
Also, we must not forget that FORT can assist organisations in navigating challenging situations, such as PR crises, shareholder disputes, or regulatory investigations, and can represent them in litigation when necessary.
Choose a Trusted Partner for Your Corporate Governance Needs
All executives should know that corporate governance is critical to the long-term success and sustainability of your organisation. By partnering with professional attorneys, you can ensure that your company maintains a strong governance framework. It will protect the interests of all stakeholders and help comply with legal and regulatory requirements.
