Good corporate governance and transparency is a win-win for investors and companies

IN THE world of investing, a company’s corporate governance and transparency play a pivotal role in helping investors make informed decisions. A well-governed company that values transparency is often a safer bet for the man-in-the-street investor.

Corporate governance is the system of rules, practices and processes by which a company is directed and controlled.

Transparency is about how openly a company shares operational and financial information.
