This article quotes a study conducted by Associate Professor (Practice) Themin Suwardy and Associate Professor Leong Kwong Sin last year, whichc found that possibly close to one quarter of Singapore-listed companies have the same set of directors sitting on all three key board committees - the audit committees, the remuneration committee and nominating committee. The writer feels this seems to be against the spirit of corporate governance and defeats the advantages of having board committees.
