Our Corporate Governance and Compliance team has the experience to help clients comply with corporate governance legislation and to guide you in the development of corporate governance procedures that bring value and accountability.
We can advise you on everything from continuous disclosure obligations to board by-laws and committee mandates to stock option plans to shareholder rights. We can help you prepare for an annual general meeting, put together proxy materials, liaise with a security commission or implement a normal course issuer bid.
In addition, two key elements of our governance practice include risk management and continuous improvement to help our clients best manage changing demands and legislation.
