Deloitte launches center for corporate governance

Deloitte today announced the launch of its Center for Corporate Governance, which would help promote dialogue in the critical areas of corporate governance among industry bodies, companies, their board of  directors and senior management, among others.

As a part of its global initiative, the Center is aimed to be a resource that would offer a large and diverse collection of governance tools, resources and thought leadership of interest to the Board, audit committee members, and others, a press release issued here said.

The Center is designed as an online resource that provides timely and relevant thought-ware as well as other information, including a list of Deloitte webcasts, podcasts and events focused on governance issues, the release said.

Monthly postings on relevant topics, discussions regarding governance issues and data on Board practices and composition are also available, the release said.

"The center for corporate governance will act as a one point gateway for audit committees, boards and other governance professionals seeking tools and information on the latest trends, regulations, and leading practices around corporate governance," Deloitte's senior director, Abhay Gupte, said.
