The transaction-ready governance checklist

How GC's can support strategic growth amid market volatility

Public and private markets are rarely predictable. Deals stall. Valuations shift. IPOs speed up — then slow down. But one thing is always true: the companies that succeed are the ones prepared to act when the moment arrives. That readiness starts with governance.

This 5-step checklist helps general counsels build the governance foundation needed to support strategic transactions, whether an IPO, M&A or VC/PE investment.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

  • Build a high-impact, deal-ready board
  • Organize filings and audit-ready reports
  • Centralize entity and ownership data
  • Strengthen cybersecurity and compliance workflows
  • Maintain governance standards after the transaction

Download the checklist to prepare your company for whatever comes next — and lead with confidence when opportunity knocks.
