Conference Day One: Wednesday, 27 November 2019
9:00 AM VISIONARY KEYNOTE PANEL DISCUSSION: CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 2030: WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST?
With the recent MENA-OECD working group firmly established in early 2019 to standardise processes in the Middle East especially the UAE, Chief Governing Officers (CGOs) have predicted a significant governing impact across organisations in four main areas in the Middle East: Diversity, disclosure, data and data integration framework (DIFs). The organisation driving this change is the Hawkamah Institute in the UAE across government, energy and financial sectors.
What do Chief Governing Officers do next?
- Corporate governance assessments, framework validation and capacity building
- Board of Directors development programme to build transparency and disclosure
- Impact across state-owned enterprises based on OECD recommendations
- Corporate leadership and the essentials of aligning organisational structure and framework with key objectives
10:30 AM KEYNOTE SPEECH: CHRONIC CULTURE: HOW CAN THE REGION AVOID LACK OF TRANSPARENCY?
Over 80% of companies in the Middle East now publish a CSR report, following the internationally - recognised standards of the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative). However, only a small percentage of the reports fully comply with the GRI requirements. What’s alarming is that, only 19 % of this contained external assurance.
How can corporate governance, compliance, audit and assurance teams be aligned?
- How can regulatory pressure be leveraged across organisational hierarchy?
- Shifting focus from developing sustainability policies to executing sustainable strategies
- Red flagging loss of internal control, damaging remuneration systems, risk appetite and cultural direction
- Defining responsibilities for corporate governance, compliance, audit and assurance teams
Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining Murad.
