2021 Governance Outlook: Projections on Emerging Board Matters
About This Report
The 2021 Governance Outlook: Projections on Emerging Board Matters is designed to give corporate directors and senior executives a comprehensive overview of major business and governance issues that are likely to demand board focus over the coming year. The report begins with an introduction from NACD that highlights survey findings about leading board priorities for 2021 and follows with five partner contributions—from Baker Tilly, Broadridge, Deloitte, and Weil, Gotshal & Manges—that provide distinct insights and projections on the following themes: strategic business risks, legal risks, data privacy, M&A oversight, and virtual shareholder engagement.
Each partner contribution provides (1) an overview of key trends in a particular area of governance, (2) an outlook for how those trends will play out in 2021, and (3) relevant implications and questions for boards to consider. The 2021 Governance Outlook: Projections on Emerging Board Matters is designed as a collection of observations to help corporate boards to prioritize their focus in 2021 and increase their awareness of emerging issues through both detailed topical analysis and coverage of broader governance implications.
