# Corporate Governance Trends 2026: AI, Cyber and ESG

Diligent's 2026 governance trends report identifies AI-powered governance platforms, real-time governance dashboards, and board effectiveness and refreshment as the leading trends reshaping how boards execute oversight—noting that enhanced transparency in how CEOs are held accountable for governance, strategy execution, and results is now a shareholder expectation. The report highlights that boards with international operations, particularly those in APAC, face an additional complexity layer from divergent regulatory frameworks and geopolitical risk. For SEA mid-market boards, the shift from retrospective reporting to forward-looking oversight via board technology platforms represents both an urgency and an opportunity.
