GOVERN WITH 360° CONFIDENCE

Boards and senior management are asked to do more with less: more reporting, more responsibility, less time. Directors worldwide increasingly report that governance demands are outpacing available time and resources. GOVERN360˚ provides a vantage point where boards and management can collaboratively assess the quality of oversight across the organisation. Explore where your governance stands with one integrated assessment.

Four tools: one integrated view of governance

Collectively, the 4 tools provide boards and executives with a practical reading across shareholder rights, disclosure and transparency, management and board effectiveness, the robustness of the three lines of defence, and emerging areas such as AI and technology governance.

Unique Value of the Toolkit

This is the only toolkit of its kind, built on over 100 international standards and developed by experts for experts. The four Compasses cover over 300 KPIs across 38 domains.

Methodology premised on international standards
Developed by the experts who have set the standards
Fully customisable to sector, ownership and regulations
A common denominator between board and management views
