(post 300–400 words):
Pick a listed or large private company.
- Assess board composition and independence against one code, for example the UK Corporate Governance Code, Malta Corporate Governance Code or OECD Principles. Name two strengths and one weakness.
- Evaluate the board’s committee structure for risk and audit. What’s missing or underpowered, and why does it matter for accountability and transparency
- Draft a one-paragraph risk appetite statement for the company and name two KRIs that the board should see each quarter.
- Show one way your proposal improves stakeholder trust.
Engagement (reply twice, 100–150 words each):
• Offer one governance tweak with a trade-off explained, for example raising independence vs losing deep industry knowledge.
• Add a sharper KRI or reporting cadence that would help oversight.
Tutor engagement: Tutors present daily 10:00–13:00 UK time, linking posts to recognised codes and stronger risk governance. Feedback within 48 hours.
Assessment focus, aligned to Module 3 LOs:
• Evaluate governance frameworks and board effectiveness.
