Provision 29: The End of "Intent-Based" Governance
UK Corporate Governance Code Provision 29 is now mandatory. Boards can no longer hide behind policies: they need evidence.
The 2026 reporting season marks a fundamental shift in UK corporate governance. Provision 29 is now active. Boards must declare whether their material internal controls are effective, and they must provide the evidence to prove it.
Gone are the days when a signed policy was enough to satisfy the auditors. Today, governance is about operational reality. You need an evidence-based GRC framework that monitors controls in real-time.
Risk management is not a defensive play: it is a commercial advantage. Organizations with robust, evidence-backed controls have lower insurance premiums and higher investor confidence.
Simplif-i builds the infrastructure for Provision 29 compliance. We turn governance into a visible, auditable asset.
