Corporate Governance

Introduction

Effective implementation of corporate governance requires companies to have a deep understanding of its core concepts and principles and to be aware of its vital importance for the long-term success of the company. LGC’s services assist companies to fully comply with the legal and regulatory requirements and draft its own corporate governance codes and charters. However, it is our core belief that effective implementation of such codes in a meaningful manner would require companies to fully understand the core principles and concepts upon which corporate governance is founded and aims to achieve. LGC developed three levels of enlightened corporate governance solutions to help companies effectively comply with corporate governance regulations and create their own and unique corporate governance methodologies and practices embedded in their internal corporate governance code.

Solution A: Enlightened Corporate Governance

Road map towards effective compliance and corporate governance code

Complying with the developing international and local corporate governance regulations is becoming an increasingly demanding burden on companies that lack the necessary understanding of the core principles and concept of corporate governance. Such lack of awareness will inevitably render companies unable to comply with corporate governance in a meaningful manner, waste time and resources, and increase the risk of breaching mandatory legal duties and obligations.

Solution B: Enlightened Company's Purpose

Linking the company’s purpose and values to the company’s corporate governance.

The financial crisis 2008 spotlighted the question on the methods under which companies are directed, operated and run. Research on a wide range of companies proved that businesses driven by profit failed or struggled to survive, while those that built their model on a purpose and set of values grew even at times of market failure. This solution assists the company’s leadership in directing the company by establishing clear purposes and sets of values, which help them lead the transformation of the company into a model that can embrace changes in markets, business models and technology, through interactive learning and brainstorming sessions, as per the following models:

Solution C: Enlightened Board of Directors

Major decisions made by the board of directors shape the company’s destiny and its path. Decisions made by a group of individuals collectively, are not always the best. Indeed, many companies collapsed due to wrong decisions caused by biases or domination over the decision making, or lack of openness and/or information in the board room.
