Transfer Pricing Compliance: Why Even SMEs Should Be Paying Attention

Transfer Pricing Is No Longer Just a Big Business Issue Traditionally, transfer pricing (TP)—the rules governing the pricing of transactions between related parties—was seen as a concern only for large multinationals. But in today’s globally interconnected economy, even small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly affected by TP rules, especially those operating across borders, within...

Public Sector Accountability: Why Performance Audits Matter Now More Than Ever

The Need for Greater Accountability in Public Spending Governments and public bodies across the Caribbean are under immense pressure to deliver more with less. Whether it’s education, infrastructure, healthcare, or environmental programs, citizens and development partners expect results, not just spending.

In our exploration of performance measurement, we’ve established that Total Shareholder Return (TSR), while commonly used, is a flawed and often misleading metric.

Reframing Executive Incentives: Aligning Pay with Real Performance

Executive compensation has long been a hot-button issue in corporate governance. At its best, it aligns management’s interests with those of shareholders. At its worst, it incentivizes short-termism, risk-taking, and financial engineering — all at the expense of sustainable value creation. In many organizations, a central component of executive pay packages is Total Shareholder Return...

Beyond TSR: Why COSR Tells a Clearer Story

In our previous article, we uncovered how Total Shareholder Return (TSR) — despite being the dominant performance metric for public companies — often fails to accurately reflect a firm’s true operational success. Now, we turn our attention to a more robust and revealing performance measure: Core Operating Shareholder Return (COSR). In this article, Dawgen Global...

Avoiding the Talent Drain: Risk Management for Your People Assets

In mergers and acquisitions (M&A), risk management typically focuses on financial, legal, and operational exposures.
