What is Corporate Governance?

Corporate governance refers to the system of rules, practices, and processes by which a company is directed and controlled. It essentially involves balancing the interests of a company’s many stakeholders, such as shareholders, management, customers, suppliers, financiers, government, and the community. Effective governance ensures transparency, fairness, and accountability in all corporate dealings, fostering investor confidence and long-term value creation. It is fundamental to any thriving business.

• Ethical Operations: Implementing policies that promote integrity and prevent misconduct.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Ensuring all parties’ interests are considered and respected.
• Risk Management: Establishing frameworks to identify and mitigate potential threats.
• Compliance Assurance: Adhering to all relevant legal and regulatory requirements.

Why is Corporate Governance Crucial for Kenyan Businesses?

Strong corporate governance is vital for Kenyan businesses aiming for growth and international credibility. It enhances investor attraction, improves operational efficiency, and reduces the risk of legal disputes and financial penalties. Furthermore, robust governance builds public trust and a positive brand reputation.
