Guidelines For IT Management

Governance

Companies that use their IT systems to improve corporate governance are more likely to improve their long-term business performance. Probably the most common complaint in business today is that the burden of conforming to a raft of related corporate governance directives (Sarbanes Oxley/SAS99, Basel II and the Freedom of Information Act) and other regulatory compliance requirements, distracts management from dealing with real business matters. Organisations need to get the right balance between conformance and performance.
