With a recently-updated Combined Code, along with the wealth of other guidance – from Turnbull to Tyson – many NEDs would be forgiven for asking exactly what good practice in governance really looks like.
In our new compendium of best practice for corporate governance reporting, we answer this question by offering helpful tips along with extracts taken from the governance statements of some of the FTSE 350’s most informative annual reports.
The compendium serves as a repository of good practice disclosure examples, portraying how different companies have developed their corporate governance reports to meet the expectations of today’s shareholders.
Our top tips for good governance include:
* Establish corporate governance guidelines and make them available on the company’s website
* Clearly identify and explain departures from the Combined Code. Show how last year’s departures were addressed in the current reporting period
* Identify key board members and cross refer to other sections of the report for further information. Highlight board changes during the year
