Hi Gillian, my RAP Part 3 consist of 5000 words while that of Part 2 consist of 1000 words, my mentor advises to stick to the recommended word count in the information pack. I feel that this would reduce the quality of part 3 and include unnecessary information in part 2. Your thoughts concerning this would be appreciated.
Thank you

Thank you Gillian, would reference accordingly.

Hi Gillian!
I yet have another question. My company’s year end for 30th April 2016 was also the period of weak governance but more issues came up after that date. My question is do I use the 2016 UK governance code that took effect from July 2016 as it is close to the year end date or do i use the 2014 code for the previous issues, then the 2016 code for the new issues. This is for the sake of referencing as I find the two to be very similar.

Thank you very much!

Good afternoon Gillian!
I am rounding up my part 3 but i have issues with my word count. As I have used the UK CG code, i gave very brief explanations about the code and its limitation in part 2. But my mentor says i should have given long and detailed explanations about each section of the code. I see this as unnecessary and eating into my word count. I need your advice concerning this.

Thank you

Good evening Trephena! I have some questions

1.) I know you said that the new topic is less formulaic, I am using stakeholder theory in my part 2 but i would like to know if this can be used generally or do i need to use a particular framework in stakeholder theory such Mendelow model.

Thank you

Good afternoon Trephena!

I have some research objectives that my mentors sees as irrelevant. He says its not part of the topic.I seek second opinion as this is the most important part of the research

1.) To assess how the weak corporate governance has affected company performance and its financial statements
2.) To assess the quality its corporate governance disclosures and reporting

Also for the techniques and models, the UK code, Agency theory and stakeholder theory was what i presented … but he says Agency theory isn’t necessary to the topic and complicates things. Would the UK code and stakeholder theory be sufficient?

Thanks alot!

Good afternoon Trephena!

As there’s been proposed changes to the UK code this year and the draft is ready which is likely to be insignificantly different from the final. I wanted to know if i can incorporate such into my objectives and assess my company in light of both the old and proposed changes. My mentor says I have no business with it as it never affected the corporate governance of the company in the period of focus. Just wanted to hear your opinion about this.

Thank you, I appreciate all you are doing.

Thank you so much for the detailed response!

Dear Gillian,
I would like to know if i can use a private company like Uber. My mentor says its better i use a listed company and also Uber doesn’t publish annual reports. Would it still be a good choice of company?

Thanks in advance.
