Corporate Governance Advisers

Culture, governance and remuneration march together. Improvements in one area will reinforce improvements in others; inaction in one area will undermine progress in others.

In a world where regulators and stakeholders are increasingly holding companies and their boards to high standards of accountability, our aim is to partner with you and provide peace of mind by assisting you in ensuring that your corporate governance practices are in-line with recommended practice, meet the expectations of ASX and your stakeholders, and support sustainable long-term success.

Nairn Corporate Governance is an incorporated law firm specialising in the provision of company secretarial services and corporate governance advice. We are independent which means our service proposition is not linked to the cross-selling of other products and services. We are candid, respectful and pragmatic in our approach, enabling us to assist you to achieve success.

Effective corporate governance is our passion and we thrive on working with ASX listed organisations, those seeking to list on the ASX and unlisted companies wishing to lift their governance arrangements to an ASX level.

How We Can Help You

Simply speaking, Australian public companies must have at least 1 company secretary and at least 1 company secretary must ordinarily reside in Australia.

ASX-listed entities are required to also have a person responsible for communication with ASX in relation to listing rule matters. A nominated ASX communication person appointed on or after 1 July 2022 must have completed an approved listing rule compliance course and attained a satisfactory pass mark prior to appointment.

We can offer:

  • the full service of an independent company secretary (including as the ASX LR 12.6 communication person)

  • support to your named company secretary

  • ad-hoc company secretarial services and governance advice as and when requested
