Seminar Introduction
The MCCG 2017 was launched earlier this year. Many suggest that there is not much change. While on the surface it may look very similar to previous codes, there are deep underlying themes that send a strong message and increases regulatory expectations.
Corporate Governance (CG) is not a tick-the-box approach. What is required is an approach that will result in the embedding of corporate governance into the very depths of the organisation, in its policies, procedures and processes and in its people resulting in good governance being the culture and the norm – an everyday reality.
To facilitate this session, we have selected facilitators who have been involved with the CG ecosystem since the first Code was introduced in 2000. They have facilitated many in-house sessions and public training sessions in corporate governance. They were also module-trainers on corporate governance under the Mandatory Accreditation Programme for directors of public listed companies (PLCs) and currently, are trainers for the Program Latihan Pengarah (PROLAP), a one-day specially designed seminar for the Ministry of Finance’s directors of statutory bodies.
We believe this session, together with references to the Companies Act 2016, will enable the participants to better appreciate and understand the nuances of corporate governance and the expectations of shareholders, stakeholders and regulators.
The Companies Acts 2016 places greater obligations on directors and greater sanctions. Directors need to be aware of the expectations to mitigate their directorship risks.
