<h1>Family-led charitable trusts dispute over board appointments sparks governance and continuity concerns for USD180+ billion conglomerate</h1> An author of a recent biography stated that the charitable trusts controlling the conglomerate should always be led by a family member, amid trustee infighting over board appointments and governance that has prompted meetings between trust and holding-company leaders and senior government ministers. The dispute, which concerns control and decision-making at trusts that hold roughly two-thirds of the promoter stake in the holding company, raises potential corporate governance and continuity risks for the USD-180+ billion group; the author characterized the disagreements as routine transition-side shows likely to be resolved without material impact.
