About us
The Society for Corporate Governance, Inc. (the "Society"), founded in 1946 as the American Society of Corporate Secretaries, has over 3,500 members representing approximately 2,500 companies. Its members deal with public disclosure under the securities laws and matters affecting corporate governance, including the structure and meetings of the board of directors and its committees, the proxy process and the annual meeting of shareholders and shareholder relations, particularly with large institutional owners. The Society acts as a positive force for enlightened corporate governance and changed its name to the Society for Corporate Governance in 2016 to demonstrate the importance it places on this key mission. The Society comments regularly on proposed and existing rules and regulations of governmental agencies and other bodies, and occasionally on legislative matters in areas of particular interest to members. It also promotes and assists in the voluntary exchange of information and experience relating to the duties, problems, and practices of corporate secretaries and their companies through the Society's committees, chapters, publications and research, and its seminars and conferences. The Society functions in large part through the contributions in time and effort of its members, most often through participation in the activities of its 25 local chapters or its several national committees. The National Office staff provides research and administrative support, publishes Society reports, surveys and other documents developed by member committees, produces a newsletter and other publications, and is generally responsible for all financial, membership and other administrative matters attendant to the operation of a large professional organization.

We are delighted to have had the opportunity to once again partner with EY to provide this updated resource to our members. View the report at https://lnkd.in/eVKi8ZgR
I was thrilled to contribute to EY and the Society for Corporate Governance's recent publication on Disclosure Committees, an update from two prior - and still very relevant - reports published in 2014 and 2021. The new data summarized in Corporate Governance in focus – Harnessing disclosure committees for modern reporting, illustrates how the composition and scope of public company disclosure committees are evolving to meet both current and forthcoming reporting mandates. Committees increasingly include members of management outside the traditional profile, consistent with the committee's expanding scope of review, including human capital and cybersecurity matters, as well as more traditional disclosures such as non-GAAP measures, with oversight on the latter increasing 11% from our previous 2021 survey to 83% of Society members surveyed. A few other critical takeaways: - 96% responded to having a Disclosure Committee in place (a 2% rise from our previous 2021 survey) - Nearly 70% reported having a charter and 58% of respondents’ maintaining formal minutes - Primary coordinators are most commonly the CAO, head of SEC reporting or in-house securities counsel I believe most critical, nearly half (43%) of respondents reported having minimal or no formal engagement with their audit committee outside of audit committee meetings. 38% of respondents said that management reports only orally to the audit committee at regular meetings. Thank you to the Society for your collaboration and support!
