Today the way in which companies are managed and controlled is under the most intense scrutiny and the subject of corporate governance has shot to the top of the agenda. In future, companies in all sectors can expect a new public and investor skepticism about their standards of disclosure and the structure of their decision-making processes. The balance of power is changing in the corporate world and now boardrooms will be forced to pay greater attention to their relationship with stakeholders and the transparency and probity of their financial statements.    

The report will alert banks to the issues that now matter to investors and other stakeholders when governance is under review. The report will also show how overall governance relates to internal control and audit, how board committees can scrutinise and question complex financial and strategic matters taking place in their banks and how board structure must respond to the pressures now being applied to executive and non-executive directors
