Corporate Governance Lawyers in Saudi Arabia

Yes. The CMA's Corporate Governance Regulations impose mandatory governance requirements on listed companies, including board composition, audit and remuneration committees, related-party transaction disclosures, and annual governance reports. The Companies Law also imposes governance obligations on all companies. We help both listed and unlisted companies build governance frameworks that meet legal requirements and best practice standards.

A family business governance framework is a set of structures, policies, and processes that define how the family makes decisions about the business, how ownership is transferred, how disputes are resolved, and how the family relates to professional management. It typically includes a family constitution, a family council, a shareholders' agreement, and board governance policies. We design these frameworks to preserve wealth and prevent conflict across generations.

A governance audit is a structured review of a company's existing governance practices against applicable legal requirements and best practice benchmarks. It identifies gaps, inconsistencies, and areas of risk. The output is a prioritized action plan to remediate findings and strengthen governance. We conduct governance audits for companies of all sizes, from family businesses to listed corporations.
