UK corporate governance – an insight into emerging trends and practices from the new Code

Join Martin Webster, Partner, Pinsent Masons in conversation with Simon Lowe Chair of the Grant Thornton Governance Institute for our next governance webinar. This reporting year is the first that companies have had to report against the new 2018 UK Corporate Governance Code. Gain a first insight into emerging trends and practices of all the FTSE 350 companies as they adopted the new Code.

Understand where leading companies are focusing their efforts and consider how your own company compares when seeking to apply the Code’s principles.

During the webinar, we will be discussing emerging trends and best practice in more detail, with exclusive insights from the Grant Thornton 2020 Corporate Governance Review. Themes we will cover include:

• Application of the Code, its principles and provisions.
• Corporate purpose
• Section 172 and ESG reporting
• Principal and emerging risks
• Remuneration
• Culture
• Board effectiveness, skills gap, talent development and succession
