Welcome to CGF Body of Knowledge Minimize

The Corporate Governance Body of Knowledge is your first port of call on issues relating to Corporate Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) related matters.

The Body of Knowledge is compiled by a team of highly trained management consultants guided by the executive directors of CGF who, as principals, have considerable experience in GRC disciplines, spanning numerous industry sectors. The quality of the GRC research and reports satisfies the stringent criteria imposed by the Proudly South African Campaign, namely that:

  • CGF's products and services must satisfy stringent quality standards;
  • CGF is committed to fair labour and employment practices;
  • CGF is committed to sound environmental standards, and
  • CGF is supporting the local economy.

Whilst many of our researched governance reports is endorsed by the Institute of Directors in South Africa, CGF has, and continues to make use of subject matter experts to further assist in the peer reviewing of our reports to ensure the material integrity and accuracy of the reports themselves.  

The reports carry the endorsements of the Global Business School of Entrepreneurs (GBSE), the Association of SADC Chambers of Commerce & Industry and the British Chamber of Business in Southern Africa.

Affordable, Essential Training

CGF provides a Corporate Governance Awareness Presentation designed to assist your management and fellow employees to understand the strategic relevance and  broader context of governance, risk and compliance.  For companies with a share-based capital, this knowledge transfer forms part of your employee induction process and is essential. 

If your organisation is on top of the basics, CGF can offer its GRC Integration Presentation which shows senior management the importance of integrating Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) and the importance of key role players within the organisation who are responsible for this integration.

Your organisation may be missing the strategic implication of Geopolitical Issues within its Strategy.  This riveting presentation high-lights the critical importance to factor numerous geopolitical issues within the company's broader strategy and operations.  Excluding these components could mean the demise of the company.

The Lapdesk Company

Under the patronage of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, The Lapdesk Company provides education infrastructure to school learners in primary and high schools in the form of portable desks. The Lapdesk Company has one simple objective: to eradicate classroom desk shortages affecting over 4 million South African school children by the year 2012 -- to date, in excess of 800,000 lapdesks have been delivered in South Africa and Africa.

The Lapdesk Company, with the Office of The Presidency (more specifically the Office of the Deputy President) is undertaking a ‘Back to School’ campaign for the period Q1 – 2010, under the guidance and support of the Office of the Deputy Presidency. The purpose of the development programme Campaign is to provide 150,000 South African school children with Lapdesks at back to school time in late January 2010.  We would be honoured if your company would be a part of this special initiative. This is an important and highly visible campaign directly in line with the Government’s strategic imperatives around education development solutions moving forward.  An effective writing surface is paramount to literacy development, and the Lapdesk is recognised as an effective solution. CGF is delighted to be a proud supporter and Value-Added Reseller of lapdesks.  See images of lapdesks above.
