Orderly conduct benefits the ordinary person who is happy to walk on the straight and narrow path. Is regulation the shield that protects, while acting as a sword to scythe down the scamsters?

With obstacles in the way of smooth conduct of business, corporate chieftains often play the "what if" game. Do they have a wishlist and is it practicable of implementation?

Just when the going looks good, a family dispute sets the company back. Is keeping the family aligned a precondition for sustained performance?

The remit of auditors and audit committees is expanding at a frightening pace. Can they cope with an overflowing plate?

The more the number of retail investors, the better it is for the market and the economy. Are they being crowded out by institutional investors?

With changes taking place at a rapid pace, will today's Boards continue to be relevant? What should the Boards of the future look like?

Gaps and overlaps have been witnessed in the regulatory space. Is more inter-regulatory coordination the need of the hour?

The Risk management committee is a latter day addition to the list of committees. They have gained increasing attention in recent times. Are they doing enough or is their suboptimal performance a risk in itself?

Some persons, mercifully decreasing in numbers, believe that growth and governance are not naturally aligned. Is good leadership the glue that keeps them together?
