Capital knows no boundaries — but regulatory requirements and corporate governance best practices vary considerably from country to country. Keeping up with local rules and norms can be a challenge.
Our series of Market Practice Overviews can help, providing at-a-glance comparisons of key regulatory, governance and voting features across over 40 different jurisdictions and listing segments, on a range of topics at the top of the governance agenda:
- Board Structure & Director Elections sets out rules and expectations for election frameworks and board composition, including leadership, director independence, committee composition, and diversity.
- Capital Authorities breaks down regulatory limits and common practices relating to share issuances and repurchases.
- Executive Compensation provides an overview of local regulatory and voting frameworks on pay from frequency to what the vote covers, along with details of common structures and delivery methods for short- and long-term incentives.
Market Practice Overviews are available now. Glass Lewis clients can access these documents on Viewpoint via the Help & Resources menu, or Governance Hub, or contact their Glass Lewis Representative for more information.
