Governance & Board Effectiveness Assessment
Evaluate your board and governance structure and receive recommendations to ensure an effective board, robust governance framework, healthy culture throughout your organisation and ensure effective oversight of risk, compliance and financial crime matters.
The independent Governance and Board Effectiveness Assessment identifies where you can strengthen your organisation’s corporate governance framework to reduce regulatory, financial crime and operational risk and develop a healthy compliance culture. Undertaking an independent assessment can enhance performance, mitigate risks and assure key stakeholders that your company is committed to ethical and responsible leadership.
Problem
Penalties can be imposed rapidly where corporate governance is deemed ineffective. There can be severe consequences for the business, the directors and senior management for noncompliance.
Solved
Free from organisational bias, Baker Regulatory Services will undertake an independent review of your board and governance framework, providing an impartial evaluation of the robustness of your governance structure and the performance of directors and senior management.
You will receive a detailed report identifying areas for improvement and best practice recommendations, ensuring that oversight mechanisms are rigorous and effective.
