There is a clear correlation between strong corporate governance and better company performance, and the risks of poor governance are increasingly common across countries. Based on the overwhelming response we received to the governance session at this year’s SBBN Roundtable, CapitalPlus Exchange/SBBN and the SME Finance Forum are proud to present the first in a series of webinars on Good Governance that begins to answer many of the questions raised by bank CEOs at the event.

The first webinar will be presented by Peter Hinton, an SBBN Expert with 21 years’ experience in countries across Asia, Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa. We invite CEOs, directors, and senior staff as well as Board Members to join us.
