Thought Leadership

A key part of UKGI’s mission is to support departments across Whitehall to be most effective in their role as shareholders of arm’s length bodies. In a newly published paper drawing on our expertise across both the public and private sectors, we identify how, where and why arm’s length bodies are used by government, and define seven critical success factors for setting up and managing them.
