  • The company secretarial services provided by Bernadette are second to none. The team provide excellent customer service, are extremely responsive, and work hard to achieve an in-depth knowledge of their clients’ businesses, which is invaluable. I would highly recommend Bernadette and her team to any potential client.
    Nichola Buchanan, Legal Counsel, easyHotel Limited
  • Following an extended period of unexpected resource challenge during the year, the Indigo team has provided efficient, professional and effective support to the function. The Indigo team worked diligently to address a backlog of subsidiary matters, engaging positively with key stakeholders across the Group and supporting the function to improve the day-to-day service we provide. The team has also provided ‘on demand’ support for our busy Board and Committee meetings, quickly becoming a trusted service provider who we can rely on to supplement resource in our small team as needed.
    David Eveleigh, Group General Counsel and Company Secretary, Serco Group plc
  • Indigo are Simplyhealth’s partner of choice for corporate governance support and company secretarial services. We value Indigo’s adhoc guidance throughout the year, with the team always able to respond at pace to a range of enquires; from in-depth technical questions through to Committee administration support at very short notice. The Indigo team have also been keen to provide a number of value add services, such as horizon scanning and networking opportunities.
    David Pugh, General Counsel and Company Secretary, Simplyhealth Group Limited
  • Indigo provides a great CoSec support service to Motorpoint. Getting the appointment right was incredibly important for Motorpoint, who were striving for consistency of support in this key area. The role they play is seamless with the business cycle at Board level; and I have only had positive feedback from fellow Board members on their team. What I find most positive about them is their willingness to pick up the baton, whatever the task in hand is, and they are a pleasure to work with.
    Chris Morgan, CFO, Motorpoint Group Plc

Gender diversity in AIM company boards
Gender diversity in AIM company boards

In celebration of International Women’s Day 2024, Addidat and Indigo: Independent Governance are delighted to collaborate for a second year to provide insights into gender diversity on the boards of AIM quoted companies. Despite some progress, the lethargic pace of change remains disappointing, with 37% of AIM firms still lacking female representation. Diversity remains a crucial factor for optimising board effectiveness and commercial success and boards are therefore urged to take stock of their approach to equality and inclusion.
