About this talk

Even though it feels that Governance was with us “forever”, until 2021 there was no international benchmark for good corporate governance. Earlier this year (on 28th June), we discussed with Carolynn Chalmers – co-editor of ISO 37000 and the CEO of the Good Governance Academy – the principles of ISO37000 on Governance; how ISO37000 addresses Sustainability and Double Materiality; the role of data in governance; and went into greater detail of ISO37000 and why it matters to leaders. (this discussion is available on demand https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/18712/586965?utm_source=DanaHanby&utm_medium=brighttalk&utm_campaign=586965) This is however a dynamic space and at the G20 Summit on 9-10 September, G20 and OECD launched the revised Corporate Governance Principles, which in the words of the OECD Secretary General “mark a significant, renewed international consensus and strong desire from all OECD and G20 Members to strengthen guidance on companies’ sustainability and resilience, to help them support the green transition and adapt to climate risks”. Vice-Minister of Finance for International Affairs who chaired the revision added that “The Principles aim to help companies access financing from capital markets, protect investors, and make companies, and hence economies, more resilient. - What are the revised G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance - Who are they for? - How do they differ from ISO 37000 Principles? - What are ISO 37004 and ISO 37006 – and should you know about them? Please join our discussion with Carolynn Chalmers, co-editor of ISO37000 on Governance, the CEO of the Good Governance Academy and the ESG Exchange Moderated by Dana Hanby – Managing Director – ESG Nexus
