Dubai, United Arab Emirates, February 05, 2008 --(PR.com)-- “Corporate Governance is perhaps one of the very few strategic tools available to Companies around the world, which can help them redefine the very purpose of the business i.e. not only to create wealth but distribute it with a principle of equanimity to all the shareholders as well as stakeholders of the company in a transparent manner.” M.K.Chouhan, Chairman - Mahendra & Young Knowledge Foundation & Vice Chairman - Global Advisory Board, Asian Centre For Corporate Governance, and speaker at the Corporate Governance Summit 2008.

With the rapid growth of the market and the volume of financial transactions taking place in the GCC, it is necessary for corporate governance processes and standards in order to ensure the future growth and stability of the market. Good corporate governance raises the profile of a country and increases investor confidence as they know they are investing in a country that’s robust, transparent and sustainable, hence this event has been developed to address these issues.

Over the last 3 months, the Finance IQ team has been engaged in detailed research with over 300 industry experts to find the core corporate governance issues affecting the markets today. This regional conference is developed by the industry, for the industry with the support of an elite advisory board including Güler Manisali Darman, Senior Partner, Principal, Corporate Governance and Sustainability Center (CGS), Turkey; Nikos Avlonas, Executive Director, CSE, Belgium; Kavilash Chawla, Principal, Nur Advisors, USA; Najeeb Al Ali, Executive Director, Dubai Centre for Corporate Values (DCCV), UAE; Maali Qasem, Head, Schema, Jordan; and Ashok Kumar Anjan, Head of Compliance, Bank of Muscat, Oman.
