The International Compliance Association (ICA), a leading professional body for the global regulatory and financial crime compliance community, has relaunched its Specialist Certificate in Corporate Governance program. The course is designed to provide an understanding of the requirements and principles of good corporate governance.
Severe shortcomings in corporate governance are an ongoing issue. In recent years, HSBC, BNP Paribas, Uber, Apple, and Danske, among others, have fallen foul of serious governance issues. High-profile corporate scandals have resulted in significant damage to communities, heavy regulatory penalties, and many stakeholders asking why directors and senior management did not do more to prevent the failures.
