CGA - Vision
To build the premier corporate governance oversight and ratings company, creating and entrenching its market and brand dominance as the leader in its field, respected as such by business, labour and government in Southern Africa.

CGA - Mission
To contribute meaningfully towards a corporate environment in Southern Africa that adheres to the principles of international best practice in corporate governance, as outlined by the King III Report, and thereby to help create a business environment attractive to investors and fair to consumers and all stakeholders, in the interests of making Southern Africa a premier destination for business worldwide.

"It is essential that the activities of corporate executives are under constant, vigorous and public scrutiny, because those activities are crucial to the economic well-being of society… If anything, developments both locally and internationally during 2001 have emphasised the need to continuously update and upgrade corporate governance standards."

Ann Crotty, Business Day - 18 January 2002

Unlocking the Value of Good Corporate Governance
We at CGA believe good corporate governance is equated with good leadership and that an organisation's approach to issues of governance reflects the true nature of its ethics and integrity. Further, we subscribe to the common view that organisational leadership has an overriding duty to all its stakeholders to ensure that a spirit of good governance is inculcated in all levels of management.

We also believe that, through the establishment of sound corporate governance principles, business code and ethics, we will add value for the benefit of management and all stakeholders. The inherent benefits of sound corporate governance will not only be realised in more effective risk management, but also in increased investor confidence and in more reliable and effective management processes.

"Despite questions being raised about the standard of corporate governance in South Africa, 85% of respondents believed that it significantly influenced investor confidence towards a company and 68% believed it was an important contributor to an organisation's performance."
