Welcome to the UK Corporate Governance Group

The UK Corporate Governance Group is a Linked In virtual community for professionals working in the changing UK Corporate Governance environment.

A key aim of the group is to network and share our experiences of best practice in board effectiveness, board performance and corporate social responsibility.

With the current economic outlook, the group is also focussed on management of board risk during commercially challenging times.  

This is an interactive group and your input is both encouraged and valued.                                                                

 

Useful links and reading

The IoD publishes some very good books on Corporate Governance.  We highly recommend The Directors’ Handbook. The second edition of this book has been updated to reflect the new Companies Act 2006. The IoD’s website section on Corporate Governance is also useful, see IoD - Corporate Governance.
