This article provides an overview of the notable market trends in corporate governance and public company reporting in 2019 and early 2020 and the outlook for the remainder of 2020.

In addition, through the Delaware Supreme Court’s decision in Marchand v. Barnhill and related cases, Delaware courts have considered to what extent Delaware corporations’ boards of directors must monitor certain risks or face potential exposure for breaches of fiduciary duty.
