The Role of Boards and Compliance with Mike Volkov
The Board's overarching intention is to maintain a company's growth and success by overseeing its affairs while fulfilling its owners and critical parties' appropriate needs.
On a case-by-case basis, it is for the Board to judge which participants it treats as 'important' and which of its concerns is necessary to comply with, keeping in view the legislation, the relevant laws, and market considerations. A board of directors does a uniquely challenging range of obligations and obstacles in fulfilling this core objective and often faces a set of contradicting set of priorities.
