What does integrated reporting really look like in practice? Does your board's integrated report reflect the board's own thinking, or is it something the board signs off on after someone else has already decided what the story is? And when was the last time your board actually debated a trade-off between short-term results and long-term value, the exact conversation integrated reporting is meant to surface?

These are the exact questions we will be tackling tomorrow at the Good Governance Academy. Join us for an enriching session with Professor Mervyn King, unpacking how King V, integrated thinking, value creation, and board accountability connect to each other.

Professor King is one of the architects behind one of the leading corporate governance frameworks on the African continent, and this is a rare chance to hear directly from him on why an integrated report is not simply a reporting obligation. In his own words, it is "the voice of the board."

You have the vision. You have the investors. You have the deal on the table. There is just one problem: your company does not exist yet.

Every day, founders sign leases, engage suppliers, hire staff, and secure funding on behalf of companies still making their way through the registration queue. It feels like a formality. It is anything but.

In our latest Legal Brief, we unpack one of the most consistently misunderstood areas of company law: pre-incorporation contracts and the personal liability that quietly attaches to the people who sign them. When a company has not yet been incorporated, it has no legal personality, no capacity to contract, and no ability to be bound. That exposure does not disappear into thin air. It lands squarely on the promoter.

We examine what the law says about who bears liability when things go wrong before the certificate of incorporation is issued, whether a company can adopt or ratify a pre-incorporation contract after it comes into existence, the fiduciary duties promoters owe to the company they are forming, and the structural safeguards that protect founders, directors, and corporate service providers from unintended personal exposure.

Whether you are advising a client on a market-entry transaction, structuring a new venture, or simply doing your job as a company secretary or governance professional, this is the brief you did not know you needed.

The company may not exist yet but the liability already does.
