With evolving regulations around climate change it's more critical than ever for directors in Singapore to stay ahead. The 4th edition of Directors’ Duties Navigator: Climate Risk and Sustainability Disclosures is a valuable resource for understanding the legal and regulatory landscape, liability risks and more, enabling directors to make informed decisions on effective #ClimateRisk management.

The recent shifts in US-China relations illustrate how geopolitics can alter the corporate landscape. Companies relying on Chinese manufacturing have been caught in the crossfire of tariffs and trade wars. The Ukraine war has driven up energy and commodity prices and disrupted supply chains, and the Middle East conflict has increased trade route vulnerabilities and amplified reputational and compliance risks for firms with global presence. Effective governance of geopolitical risk requires a structured approach, starting with incorporating these risks into the mandate of relevant committees, such as the risk committee or sustainability committee. Boards must move beyond surface-level conversations to implement frameworks that facilitate proactive identification, mitigation and transfer of risks.

𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 - 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐥? That was the topic of discussion at this special Singapore Institute of Directors x BoardAgender collaboration, bringing together aspiring women directors and directors for an evening of mentorship, peer learning, and networking. Big thanks to the two powerful women leaders for their vision and drive to make this event a reality - the inimitable Georgette Tan Adamopoulos whose dedication in championing gender diversity has lifted up many in the community, and Karen Loon - though she wears the hat of SID Governing Council member and 2024 Chair of SID Women Directors Chapter, she was instrumental in the genesis of the mentorship programme at BoardAgender. Grateful to all the directors (women and men) for joining us and playing the role of facilitators , Su-Yen Wong 黄素燕 for sharing so authentically, and the many attendees for their active participation. Shout out to our friends at PwC Singapore for playing host, and of course, special thanks to my team and the BA team for working tirelessly behind the scene to organise the session. Before event the dust of this event has settled, the team is already looking ahead to the next activity to support women directors on their board journey. If you’re keen to be part of this growing community that is supportive, nurturing and inspiring, drop an email to membership@sid.org.sg The real deal begins with you taking the first step. #Governanceforgood #women #directorship #board #journey
