Taiwan Ranks 3rd in 2023 Asia Corporate Governance Rankings
Taiwan took the third spot in the Asian Corporate Governance Association's (ACGA) ‘CG Watch 2023’ rankings, up one place from the previous survey in 2020. Corporate governance, the standards of conduct and procedures for managing a firm, provides the legal framework for efficient operations and is crucial for companies to raise their competitiveness and maximize shareholder value. Well-designed corporate governance creates a robust environment for companies to flourish and pursue sustainable development.
Taiwan scored 62.8 in the ACGA rankings, trailing only Australia (75.2) and Japan (64.6). Taiwan's 2023 total score, a 0.6 rise from 2020's 62.2, was Taiwan's highest-ever since the ACGA first began compiling the rankings in 2003. The CGW 2023 covers seven factors: governance and public governance, regulators, corporate governance rules, listed companies, investors, auditors and audit regulators, and civil society & media. Among the seven factors, Taiwan ranked No. 2 in Asia in governance & public governance, regulators, and auditors and audit regulators categories in 2023.

Global Talent Rankings & Talent Mapping
To facilitate your international talent recruitment and talent mapping strategy, we will present two leading rankings for talent ranking in this e-newsletter. Two leading international talent evaluations, namely the OECD Talent Attraction Indicators and the IMD World Talent Ranking may be of your interest.
(1) OECD Talent Attraction Indicator
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) released the first ‘Indicators of Talent Attractiveness (ITA)’ in 2019, and the second report was released in March 2023. A total of 38 OECD and non-OECD countries are extensively evaluated. However, Taiwan has not yet been included in this evaluation.
(2) IMD World Talent Ranking
The International Institute for Management Development (IMD) released the ‘IMD World Talent Ranking 2023’ in September 2023. Taiwan ranked 20th among the 64 economies. Taiwan is ranked 3rd in Asia, next to Singapore (8th) and Hong Kong (16th). In the IMD World Talent Ranking report, three main categories, namely Investment and Development, Attracting and Retaining Talent (Appeal), and Talent Readiness (Readiness) and 31 sub-categories are applied as indicators.
In the following e-newsletters, you will learn about the current status of high-quality talents in local universities in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam, as well as Poland. Be sure to subscribe to our e-newsletter.
