Design/methodology/approach

Findings

The effectiveness of the organization through internal communication and process enhancements across all functions (particularly between registration services and the compliance team) was enhanced, meaning that information on registered firms was more readily captured and shared, and the overall project enabled MCCB to remain fully effective in its operations despite the impact of change and uncertainty experienced in the period up to closure.

Practical implications

Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to‐digest format.
