Linklaters partners will vote tomorrow (25 November) on plans to shrink the firm’s international board by four members as part of a wider review of governance issues, Legal Week understands.

The firm has ruled out a merger of its executive committee and international board, but is set to vote on whether to scale it’s 15 member intenational board down to 11, in line with moves by other firms, most notably Clifford Chance, to streamline management strata in recent years.
