Corporate Governance |
Good corporate governance procedures are now essential for all companies. It is essential that appropriate companies have corporate governance procedures in place to meet the requirements of the Combined Code on corporate governance published by the Financial Reporting Council and the continuing requirements of the Irish and UK stock exchanges.
Corporate Governance refers broadly to the rules, processes, or laws by which businesses are operated, regulated, and controlled. In the context of Company Law, we can advise and assist on:
- The convening of and proceedures at Board Meetings;
- Appointments to the Board of Directors
- Board balance between Executive and Non-Executive Directors
- Individual Director/Board Evaluation Proceedures
- Composition and role of Board sub-committees
- Convening of and proceedures of General Meetings
- Poll Counts and Scrutineering
- Attendance at Meetings to take Minutes
- Conduct Statutory ‘HealthChecks’
- Maintenance of Statutory Books and Records
