Governance & Compliance Challenges This afternoon, I attended a thought-provoking webinar, expertly moderated by @Shaikh Mahmud bin Ilyas. The panelists, @Waheed Hassan, @Abbas Mirza, and @Abdul Qadir provided valuable insights into the current challenges surrounding Governance and Compliance, emphasising the importance of adhering to these principles in all types of companies, whether they are SMEs or large corporations. During the session, I shared my view point on the complexities of implementing Governance and Compliance in family-owned (Seth) businesses in Pakistan. The biggest challenge lies in balancing family dynamics with formal organisational structures. Issues such as a lack of clear roles and responsibilities, resistance to change from family members, and the blending of personal and business interests can complicate the establishment of effective governance frameworks. In the West, family-run businesses often thrive for over a century (@The Century Club), largely due to their strong adherence to compliance. However, in Pakistan, the lack of Governance and Compliance hinders long-term growth, and many companies don’t even survive to the third generation. One exception we can surely discuss is @Engro, which achieved its structure primarily through the transformation originally observed by @EXXON. Overall, there are not many companies in Pakistan that we presently see could claim a legacy of 100 years. #SECP, #PSX, #ESG, #PICG, #HMRWaterfront, #Goldcrest, #DHA, #REIT

I am very proud to share that after 6 years of participatory and consultative work, spearheaded by AMEA (Agribusiness Market Ecosystem Alliance), of which ACDI/VOCA is a founding member, ISO 18716:2024 Professional Farmer Organization - Guidance is now published! This ISO international standard gives guidance on the characteristics and best practices of a professional farmer organization. ISO 18716:2024 can empower farmer organizations, BDS providers, development partners, investors/lenders, governments and others to understand how to develop business capacities that unlock growth. Professional FOs are more likely to have better business opportunities, greater sustainability, and deliver more benefits to their members. This is essential to achieve inclusive agriculture-driven growth. Here’s a short video about the new international standard: shttps://lnkd.in/eM8rx8AW And more information is available here: https://lnkd.in/e2ThdXz2 #ISO18716 #acdivoca #amea
