There is practices a need to monitor and practice the different elements of a corporate board to ensure good corporate governance practices are upheld.
“The conclusion is inescapable: boards play a critical role in a company’s ability to achieve its goals and produce value for shareholders, and there is a link between board composition and financial performance…”
