A report by the Group of 30 economic think tank has again turned the spotlight on corporate governance at financial institutions since the financial crisis. Financial News looks at 10 ways in which the industry needs to improve oversight at board level.
Emphasising the link between strong corporate governance and the economic stability both of individual firms and the wider global economy, the Group of 30, a non-profit body which researches international economic issues, laid out key measures that financial institutions should consider when crafting corporate governance policies.
The G30’s members include a mix of international economic leaders, including former President of the European Central Bank Jean-Claude Trichet and economist Paul Volker, former chairman of the US federal reserve. The report, published on Thursday, was put together by a working group that included Jacob Frenkel, chairman of JP Morgan Chase International, Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the People’s Bank of China, and William McDonough, former vice-chairman of Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
Financial News has distilled the 96-page report into 10 factors most important to strong governance at financial institutions.
