Summary |
Board accountability is constantly in the spotlight, with regular discussion around the quality of decision-making, the roles and behaviours of directors and the oversight and management of risk. With so much emphasis on the need for good governance, staying up-to-date and finding the right governance arrangements is a major challenge for boards and their advisors.
The new edition of ICSA’s Corporate Governance Handbook covers all aspects of corporate governance in the UK, providing clear, non-technical advice on current thinking on core topics.
Comprehensively updated, coverage includes, recommendations for best practice from the FRC’s Guidance on Board Effectiveness, the Davies’ report on Women on Boards, the EU Green Paper on Corporate Governance, FRC’s December 2010 Guidance on Audit Committees, the Bribery Act 2010 and QCA’s Corporate Governance Guidelines for Smaller Quoted Companies.
Each chapter concludes with a Governance Checklist of key question to cross check that appropriate arrangements are in place.
