To celebrate our 45th anniversary, we’ve updated our Timeline of Corporate Governance, which has appeared throughout the years in our pages. Directors & Boards was founded during the creation and passage of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which we believe to be the legislation that began the modern era of corporate governance responsibilities. We’ve continued to advocate for excellence in corporate governance through Sarbanes-Oxley, Dodd-Frank and the vigorous focus on ESG and DEI. While this timeline covers the past 45 years, former editor-in-chief Jim Kristie went back as far as 1912 in his first Timeline, which was published in our Fall 1997 issue.
