I have been setting up and restructuring business for 2 decades now and the satisfaction of watching businesses grow is a huge achievement in itself. But what I also find more satisfying in helping businesses achieve their goals within an corporate investigation. This means no matter how good you are at your inhouse due diligence, when you employ staff, have you ever thought that someone may just get past through without your realising it? - what if it happens to you and you find you or your business in an internal investigation? Most recently I have had to deal with an inhouse corporate investigation, which was resoved within a month of submission, great! Oh my, there is so much invloved, such as:- Preserve and document the incident scene and my incident investigator's first priority should be to ensure that the incident site is safe and secure prior to commencement ... Having to collect all the right information and also to interview witnesses, which we often know, can be 50/50. Knowing what questions to ask, catching people out when they least expect it! Mostly I have to determine what is the root causes and Implement Corrective Actions! So it's not just about eating a bowl of cornflakes, its knowing how you seperate the good from the bad and getting the right results each time. All your legal and essential tools to hand. If you have any queries, questions, just feel free to call me - Be lovely to hear from you... #corporatelaw #inhouse #frauddetection #fraudprevention #legaladvice #corporatecompliance #hrconsultancy #companylaw #investigations

However, the quality of the information provided by the company's board of directors is either significant. The most common obstacle encountered in practice in relation to the issue mentioned is information asymmetry. Information asymmetry can be define as the provision of information by the members of the company's board of directors to the company's shareholders and future investors in violation of the principle of equality. And this is one of the naked violations of corporate governance principles. Also this may lead to the cancellation of the decisions made in general assembly of company. Moreover, if company suffers any damage arising from members of the board of directors of company, who will besides be liable for this damage occured. #informationasymmetry #boardofdirectors #generalassembly #corporatelaw #corporategovernance
