Overview

We will guide you through the web of governance considerations to create a solution designed to build organizational trust and value. We know what it takes to meet the requirements of a regulatory environment in constant flux, to identify risk and - when necessary - to defend your interests.

Regulatory developments in one jurisdiction or industry often influence developments within others. Our team constantly monitors the regulatory landscape across the globe, advising clients of relevant changes that could affect policy development and business practices.

We have an interdisciplinary team with some of the strongest industry experience in mining, energy, telecommunications, transportation, financial services and life sciences available. And with offices in London, Johannesburg and across Canada as well as alliances with firms throughout the world, we help clients with any governance issue anywhere they need it.

Boards, committees and executives often ask our advice on matters involving proposed transactions, post-merger leadership, crisis management, internal investigations, disclosure, proxies, stakeholder relations and engagement, whistle-blowing, board recruitment and the development of governance policies and practices.
