McKinsey
& Company recently reported that ‘high governance standards
will prove essential to attracting and retaining investors in global
capital markets1.’
In fact, an overwhelming majority of investors are willing
to pay premiums ranging from 12-14% for companies exhibiting high
governance standards; in addition, for many capital sources, corporate
governance is now an established investment criterion2.
JumpStart Partners enables our clients to capitalize on these premiums by working
with them to establish and maintain governance structures that reflect
the highest standards of professionalism and independence.
We help augment existing board programs for our clients by
providing additional resources for business knowledge and intellectual
capital. For companies
who have never implemented this structure before, we can create
a formal program to meet their individual needs.
A
sampling of our expertise includes:
-
Developing
checklist of skill and relationships required for potential
board members.
-
Identifying
and targeting prospective Board of Advisors candidates.
-
Leveraging
JSP’s proprietary network to provide independent council with
brand credibility.
-
Enhancing
and/or developing board policies and practices to facilitate
frequent interaction.
-
Creating
Board of Advisors programs and metrics to ensure maximum shareholder
value.
