Please ensure the question is answered comprehensively

Read the following extract and answer the question that follows:

The King Reports on Corporate Governance were ground-breaking codes of corporate governance in South Africa issued by the King Committee on Corporate Governance. Four reports were issued in 1994 (King I), 2002 (King II), 2009 (King III) and 2016 (King IV).

Compliance with the King Reports is a requirement for companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. The King Reports on Corporate Governance have been cited as 'the most effective summary of the best international practices in corporate governance.

Unlike other corporate governance codes such as Sarbanes-Oxley, the code is non- legislative and is based on principles and practices. It also espouses an 'apply or explain' approach.

The philosophy of the code consists of the three key elements of leadership, sustainability, and good corporate citizenship. It views good governance as essentially being effective, ethical leadership.
