We review corporate governance structures to assist investors in evaluating and monitoring organizations.

Effective corporate governance is a key indicator for investors, and regular reviews are needed to ensure that those underlying structures are operating effectively and are fit for purpose, both pre-investment to inform onboarding, and during the investment lifespan to monitor performance and improvement. MEIoD uses the industry-standard IFC Corporate Governance Methodology to conduct a comprehensive assessment, whereby we collect background information about the governance structure of a company, review data and documentation, conduct site visits, and individual meetings, and if there are shortcomings, develop an improvement plan framework.

Accurate corporate governance reporting is vital in demonstrating the effectiveness of the governance infrastructure of a company to investors. Reports should give a transparent and holistic view of governance policies and structures. We assist investors by helping the companies they invest in to compile and structure their corporate governance reports, either for individual companies, or whole portfolios. This goes beyond what is merely “required” to deliver an extensive and informative review of board activity, in line with global best practice and focused on the information needs of investors.

Preparation and drafting of contracts

We work with investors to recruit certified directors with relevant experience.

For investors looking to strengthen the board in a target or current investment company, or for investors that have board seats, MEIoD can assist in recruiting the most suitable directors for each position. We nominate directors who have the necessary background or specific skillsets to enhance and improve the corporate governance function of the business, board performance, and oversight. For organizations without a defined board profile, we can assist in creating one, and in benchmarking the board’s makeup, experience, and practices against competitors or industry leaders to identify any skill gaps.
