The Seminar aims to introduce the concept of corporate governance and the beneficial impact good corporate governance practices have for organisations. Importantly, good corporate governance relies on the effective functioning Board of Directors that has clearly assigned duties and responsibilities and for this reason the seminar will delve into the Directors’ role and the organisational structure of Corporate Boards. In addition, the seminar seeks to highlight the reasoning behind prevailing corporate governance legal and regulatory requirements and how these requirements positively impact the functioning of financial institutions.
