Sir Adrian Cadbury,

Insurance and Financial Risk Management

The name of Sir Adrian Cadbury has become synonymous with the development of corporate governance. His original involvement was chairing the UK Committee on the Financial Aspects of Corporate Governance in 1991, whose report has taken the name of Cadbury into the annals of the subject. Since then Sir Adrian has visited 28 countries, contributing massively to the raising of board level standards around the world. Now he reports that he has enjoyed this governance odyssey, but is “retiring from this particular field”. His contributions as a member of the Editorial Advisory Board of this journal have been very significant. Here he draws some conclusions on the state of corporate governance and likely developments in the future.
