SingPost names Heidrick & Struggles as corporate governance consultant

The review will be completed by July.

Singapore Post has appointed independent consulting firm Heidrick & Struggles to undertake the company’s Corporate Governance Review.

Heidrick & Struggles was selected after the conclusion of a detailed request-for-proposal exercise, SingPost said.

The consulting firm will work with a reputable law firm for the parts of the Corporate Governance Review involving legal input and analysis, such as the SingPost’s corporate governance relating to mergers, acquisitions and divestments and conflicts of interest.

The review is expected to be completed before SingPost’s annual general meeting scheduled in July 2016.

Meanwhile, an internal ongoing comprehensive review of SingPost’s corporate governance practices which the group had started in early 2015 is underway.
