Directors’Training
Programme
Under the Code of Corporate Governance, 2012, there is a mandatory requirement for the Board of Directors of listed companies to get certification under the Directors’ Training Program (DTP) offered by the SECP-approved Institutions. Through an amendment made by SECP in the Pakistan Stock Exchange’s (PSX) Rule-Book, pertaining to the Code of Corporate Governance, it has been made mandatory for all the listed companies to ensure that by June 30, 2018, at least half of the Directors on the Board have obtained certification.
In a major break-through for gender diversity in corporate boards in Pakistan, the SECP has required listed companies to have at least one woman director within three years. This change is being implemented through the revised Code of Corporate Governance under the new Companies Act 2017, which specifies that public interest companies shall have such representation of directors as specified by the SECP. As a result, the proportion of women directors on listed companies, which are a subset of public interest companies, is expected to jump from 6.4 percent to at least 14.3 percent. At present out of 100 companies included in the KSE 100 index of Pakistan Stock Exchange, 69 companies have no woman director. These include 16 out of the 20 largest listed companies in terms of free-float market capitalization.
ICMA Pakistan is officially approved by SECP to conduct Directors’ Training Program (DTP). Since June 2012, ICMA Pakistan has so far conducted 13 DTP programs in different cities and awarded certificates to over hundred Board of Directors, in addition to Chief Financial Officers, Chief Internal Auditors, and Companies Secretaries of Listed Companies.
