MAS’ advisory committee to review governance code

The review aims to enhance the transparency and market appeal of listed companies.

The Corporate Governance Advisory Committee (CGAC) will review the Code of Corporate Governance (CG Code), the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) announced.

The review aims to strengthen established good practices in corporate governance and disclosures amongst listed companies whilst complementing the ongoing efforts of the Equities Market Review Group.

Two sub-committees will work with the CGAC to enhance the implementation of the CG Code and explore new provisions relating to corporate culture, board effectiveness, and risk management in emerging areas.

Industry experts have also been invited to share their insights with the Sub-Committees as part of the review. The Sub-Committees will conduct focus group discussions to gather feedback.

“The objective is to make our listed companies more transparent and attractive in the capital market without unduly over-burdening them with inconsequential reporting guidance or requirements,” Bob Tan, chairman at CGAC said.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
