From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The King Committee, formed 1993 by the Institute of Directors in Southern Africa (IoD) was established to investigate the role of boards of directors in South African firms[1].

Chaired by businessman and former judge Mervyn E. King, the committee included Phillip Armstrong, Nigel Payne, and Richard Wilkinson.

The committee has released two reports:

  • the King Report on Corporate Governance, 1994 - King I
  • the King Report on Corporate Governance in South Africa, 2002 - King II
