Wates Corporate Governance Principles for Large Private Companies

The IBE’s Director was invited to be part of the Coalition Group that was tasked with developing new corporate governance principles for large privately-owned companies, chaired by Sir James Wates CBE.

The Coalition Group was established by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) in response to the Consultation on Corporate Governance Reform; its aim was to encourage high standards of corporate governance and reflects the impact that large privately-owned companies have on society and the economy.

The IBE is proud to have been involved in the development of these ground-breaking principles for large private companies.
Principle One is the backbone of any successful organisation - aligning values and strategy and culture.
IBE's survey work bears this out - Philippa Foster Back CBE
