Mamta Binani, president of ICSI, a professional body under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, said it is organising a global congruence here on December 9-10 to create global consensus and moot a proposal with United Nations Organisation to declare a day as 'International Corporate Governance Day'.
"We have conceived the idea (of having a Global Corporate Governance Code) and conceptualised it. This is the first time that anything like this is happening in the world.
She said ICSI had organised International Corporate Governance Day celebrations in Delhi in April this year, which was attended by representatives from countries such as France and Germany.
"There will be a series of meetings in the future. We are planning to have meeting with the Consul Generals of all the countries next month. We are seeking UNO support for declaring a day as International Corporate Governance Day and also to have a Uniform Corporate Governance Code globally," she said.
