Principles of Good Governance
Practical guidance to help Boards working in varied legal and organisational frameworks, in the UK or internationally
We are delighted to confirm that the merger deed bringing ISBA and AGBIS together has now been signed, marking a significant milestone on our journey towards the launch of the new association in January 2027. The new association will continue to provide the personal advice, specialist support and trusted relationships that members already value.
Catherine Spencer OBE, Chief Executive Elect of the new association said: “This is a significant step towards bringing business and governance expertise together in one association. Drawing on the strengths of ISBA and AGBIS, we will build on the support members already value, helping them respond confidently to today’s challenges and prepare for the opportunities ahead”
