Irish Stock Exchange says Grant Thornton Review of Corporate Governance is a useful - - "albeit narrow" - - contribution


The Irish Stock Exchange said today that the Grant Thornton Review of Corporate Governance for companies listed on the Irish Stock Exchange is a useful, albeit narrow, contribution to the ongoing debate on Corporate Governance on public markets.


Grant Thornton said that half of Irish public companies do not comply fully with the Combined Code on Corporate Governance, which is a condition of listing on the Irish Stock Exchange.
Research carried out by accounting firm Grant Thornton shows that many boards are failing to implement best practice in relation to the composition and independence of the board of directors.
