Here's an uncomfortable truth: most boards are signing off on an AI future they couldn't explain if asked.

Not because directors aren't capable but because the questions changed faster than the agendas did. AI accountability, algorithmic decision-making, cyber resilience, data stewardship… these aren't IT's problem anymore. They're board-level oversight, and the liability sits with you.

The 4th Annual FluidRock Conference exists for exactly this moment. Governance as a Digital Catalyst is a full day built for real boardroom decisions not theory, not buzzwords, not fear. You'll hear from Prof Mervyn King SC, Jeremy Maggs, Ansie Ramalho, Mandy Wiener and Captain Londy Ngcobo, pressure-test assumptions in a live debate on whether AI deserves a seat at the table, and leave knowing the exact questions your board should be asking on Monday morning.

When confidentiality meets disclosure obligations, governance judgement matters.

The Vodacom ‘Please-call’me” matter was settled but the quantum was not disclosed. This raises an important governance question: when a matter is confidential, how much information is still required to ensure stakeholders understand its significance?

Governance expert Ronelle Kleyn highlights the balance companies must strike between confidentiality, disclosure obligations and stakeholder transparency.

Don’t underestimate the impact of AI. AI is already shaping decisions, creating exposure and introducing governance risks inside organisations, often without leadership fully seeing where, how or with what consequence. If you carry responsibility for oversight, risk, strategy or control, missing this session means missing a critical opportunity to understand the issue before it becomes a problem.

This webinar will set the context, highlight the realities already unfolding in organisations, and surface the risks, leadership questions and governance pressures that many boards and executives are still underestimating.

A board that continues to approach governance as a compliance item on the agenda is completely missing the point.

King V™’s reduction from 17 to 13 core principles wasn’t a tidy editorial exercise. It was the King Committee signalling that the era of passive, checkbox governance is over. Boards must now actively demonstrate how their practices produce real outcomes: an ethical culture, effective control, legitimate leadership, and sustainable performance.

The boards that treat this as a remapping exercise are missing what the Code is actually asking. The boards that restructure their agendas around strategic debate, active risk evaluation, and defensible decision-making are the ones this Code was written for.

A corporate governance advisory function that can’t explain how its practices realise King V™’s outcomes is not meeting the standard.

Is your board using the King V™ transition to do something different, or just to update its documentation?

What does the Companies Act say about your duties in the era of AI?

AI is reshaping governance, accountability and risk faster than most boards are able to manage.

King V™ is now in effect. The question for every board is no longer whether to adapt but how quickly, and how well.

Released on 31 October 2025 and effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2026, the King V™ Report on Corporate Governance reshapes the South African governance environment.

Seventeen principles have been consolidated into thirteen.

"Effective Control" has been redefined as Conformance. A mandatory Disclosure Framework replaces the flexibility of "apply and explain". And for the first time, boards are explicitly accountable for the governance of AI and data.

FluidRock's intermediate-level programme: Understanding the Governance Environment: King V™ is designed for board members, company secretaries, compliance and risk leaders, and executives translating the new code into practice.

Participants explore the philosophy behind King V™, its 13 principles, the four governance outcomes, and the disclosure expectations now shaping reporting, stakeholder engagement, and ethical leadership.
