Governing law means the system of law to be applied to determine a dispute under a contract with non-domestic elements, usually specified by a ''governing law clause'' in the contract.
(IWAF).


Impact-weighted reporting and accounts are designed to supplement traditional financial reporting, taking a broader perspective on an organisation's total impact.


In the absence of a governing law clause, the applicable system of law is determined by convention, regulation or general law.
The Impact Weighted Accounts Framework (IWAF) is designed to ensure complete and consistent impact-weighted reporting.

Contracts and other relationships without foreign elements will generally be governed by domestic law.
