Jamaica’s approach to corporate governance has been shaped by
both local legislation and global influences, encouraging companies
to adopt practices that are not only legally compliant but also
ethically sound and socially responsible. This shift reflects a growing
awareness among stakeholders of the importance of environmental
stewardship, social equity, and ethical management within the
corporate sector.
Key aspects of Jamaica’s corporate governance framework include:
Legislative Framework: Jamaica has enacted laws and
regulations that reflect the modern approach to corporate
governance. These include the Companies Act, which outlines
the duties and responsibilities of directors and officers,
emphasizing accountability, fairness, and transparency in their
dealings.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Jamaican companies are
increasingly embracing CSR, recognizing their role in
contributing to social and environmental well-being. This is not
just a trend but a strategic approach to building sustainable,
ethical business practices that align with global standards.
Stakeholder Engagement: Modern corporate governance in
Jamaica involves a broader engagement with stakeholders,
including employees, communities, customers, and the
environment. This inclusive approach helps companies to build
trust and sustain long-term relationships, which are critical for
success in today’s interconnected world.
