BlueOnion’s Chief Sustainability Officer Dr. Jeanne Ng discusses challenges in adapting to an ever increasing corporate complexity in our world.

The Organizer's recap:-

High-profile corporate failures and misdeeds across Asia and China have alerted the general public to the issue of good and bad corporate governance once again. Building on the work that has been done by PBEC on Services, Transparency and Traceability, this roundtable will provide participants an opportunity to exchange views on the responsibility of corporate officers and directors on best practices with respect to independence of directors, conflicts of interest avoidance, and lessons learned including latest legislation for corporates to be aware of.
