The revised Malaysian Code of Corporate Governance published in March 2012 contains a number of principles and recommendations designed to continue the drive towards high standards.

The principles are: 

• Establish clear roles and responsibilities for the Board, its committees, directors and management
• Strengthen the composition of Boards
• Reinforce independence
• Foster the commitment of Board members
• Uphold financial integrity in financial reporting
• Recognise and manage risks
• Ensure timely and high quality disclosure
• Strengthen relationships between the company and its shareholders

Many of the recommendations affect the operation of Nominating and Remuneration committees and will require Committee Chairs and individual directors to enhance their involvement and knowledge.

Iclif (http://www.iclif.org/) will be running a one-day Nominating and Remuneration Committee programme on 12 September 2012, which Professor Mak Yuen Teen and I will be facilitating to help directors and staff impacted by the new requirements (CEOs, CFOs, Company Secretaries, HR Directors) explore how Nominating and Remuneration committees should function and the related governance and other issues.

If you're interested in attending, please contact Iclif directly at fide@iclif.org.

If you know of anyone else who may be interested, please forward this to them.

I look forward to seeing you on the Programme.
