SINGAPORE, Nov 25 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) — Amid escalating economic and geopolitical uncertainty, nearly half of governance leaders in Asia (48%) are prioritising AI adoption as a top strategic priority for 2026 – ahead of pursuing growth opportunities (45%), managing cybersecurity risks (39%) and managing geopolitical risks (32%). Rather than letting uncertainty hold them back, Asia boards are betting on innovation as their path forward.
The APAC Governance Outlook 2026 report, published by the Diligent Institute in collaboration with the Singapore Institute of Directors (SID) and the Governance Institute of Australia (GIA), surveyed leaders in Asia to capture the top priorities shaping the region’s boardrooms in the year ahead.
