What Is Financial Governance?


Financial governance is the framework that underpins performance, resilience, and trust in a business. It covers everything from how transactions are processed to how decisions are made at the boardroom table.


It’s not just about compliance—it’s about enabling growth, safeguarding value, and building a finance team that drives performance. From recruitment tests to tech stack optimisation, from development plans to deadline discipline, FinGov covers it all.
