ICGN Committees provide an opportunity for our members to shape our policy work through their expert input, contributing to our mission to advance the highest standards of corporate governance and investor stewardship worldwide.
ICGN convenes an investor-led Global Policy Committee which supports ICGN across its advocacy and thought leadership work. We also convene a Future Leaders Committee to enhance the integration of early career professionals’ perspectives into ICGN’s policy activities. In addition, we host ad-hoc working groups on emerging corporate governance and stewardship topics, which ICGN members can learn about in our bi-weekly policy newsletter.
Learn more about the Global Policy Committee and Future Leaders Committee below.
The Global Policy Committee enables ICGN members to contribute their perspectives on ICGN’s policy work, including thought leadership and advocacy activities, supporting the ICGN Secretariat in identifying and promoting high standards of governance and stewardship practices.
ICGN Future Leaders Committee aims to enhance the integration of early career professionals’ perspectives into ICGN’s policy work. It also aims to provide an opportunity for future leaders in corporate governance, stewardship, and responsible investing to connect with industry leaders and peers.
