  • an update on high profile governance-related cases before the Supreme Court and some wins for the FMA in insider trading and market manipulation cases
  • a focus on cyber with worldwide cyber-attacks being a reminder for board to address cybersecurity in their organisations
  • sustainability and climate change firmly on the agenda as shareholders and stakeholders globally are increasingly voicing their concerns and aspirations.
