Boston Consulting Group, Heidrick and Struggles, and the INSEAD Corporate Governance Centre have jointly published a new report titled 'Governing Under High Uncertainty: Opportunities for Emerging-Market Boards'. The study, based on interviews with over 100 senior directors, examines how boards in Emerging markets are navigating increasing geopolitical volatility, economic disruption, technological change, climate risks, and evolving societal expectations. It highlights that uncertainty is now broader, faster-moving, and driven by 'unknown unknowns', intensifying both global and local pressures on governance systems. The report identifies opportunities for improvement by reinforcing foundational governance disciplines and paying attention to trust, culture, and collective behavior. It also emphasizes the distinctive role boards in Emerging markets can play in strengthening governance standards across their markets and contributing to economic and societal stability. The report concludes with a framework for boards to assess their readiness for high uncertainty.
