Olswang has launched its second governance overhaul in three years, with the firm looking to streamline its oversight body ahead of management elections next year after a spate of international expansion.

The UK top 30 firm kicked off the review six weeks ago with firm general counsel Simon Callander leading it alongside eight partners. 

It comes as chief executive David Stewart (pictured) and senior partner Mark Devereux's existing three-year terms are due to end next April.
