Corporate Governance is essentially about leadership – leadership that is responsible, exercised with probity and conducted in a highly transparent and accountable manner. Therefore, the emphasis throughout – whether in a presentation on financial stewardship or another on board accountability – is on developing leadership skills.
Corporate Governance contributes both to business prosperity and to accountability. The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) has thus been making continuous efforts to raise the corporate governance standards in the country. The first step was made in March 2002, when the Code of Corporate Governance (the Code) was issued by SECP. It was included as a part of the listing regulations of the three stock exchanges and became applicable to all public listed companies.
