The Securities Commission updated the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance (MCCG) on 28 April 2021. Companies with financial year ending 31 December 2021 will have to report on the adoption of these revised provisions. The immediate questions that come to mind are the steps required to implement these provisions and how they should be disclosed. This is especially relevant to Company Secretaries.
In this workshop, participants will be exposed to leading practices by companies that have adopted and disclosed meaningful governance practices. Participants will be provided with steps to implement the new and updated provisions where relevant, and sample policies to improve governance practices in their companies so as to comply with the new and updated provisions in the MCCG.
