The Financial Reporting Council announced yesterday that it will be undertaking a full review of the #UKStewardshipCode. The review will focus on, amongst other topics, the extent to which the Code: ➡ supports long term value creation through appropriate investor-issuer engagement that drives issuers’ prospects and performance ➡ creates reporting burdens on issuers as well as Code signatories ➡ has led to any unintended consequences, such as short-termism in targets and outlook for issuers. The review will be undertaken in three phases: 1️⃣ The first phase will be a targeted outreach, focussed around the four main groups affected by the Code’s principles and application – issuers, asset managers, asset owners and service providers, on the topics outlined above. The FRC expects these outreach discussions to uncover a range of issues that will inform the second phase. 2️⃣ The second phase will be a public consultation, which is planned to launch after the 2024 AGM voting season during the summer months. 3️⃣ The revised Code will be most likely published in early 2025.

The "comply or explain" framework allows flexibility for companies to tailor their governance reporting to their specific strategies and risks. The FRC plans to support companies through additional resources, including podcasts and webinars, to help them navigate the new code. They stress the need for companies to identify material risks and opportunities, showcasing best practices in governance reporting. Overall, the podcast aims to prepare companies for the first reporting cycle under the new governance code. https://lnkd.in/eiiz8x73
