UK Corporate Governance Code

The UK Corporate Governance Code is a set of guidelines designed to promote good governance in UK companies. It aims to ensure transparency, accountability, and fairness in the way companies are run. The Code encourages companies to operate with integrity, maintain effective boards, and engage with their shareholders. While it's not legally binding, companies are expected to either follow its principles or explain why they might deviate from them. This approach fosters trust and helps protect the interests of investors and other stakeholders in the business environment.
