Corporate Governance Adrift: A Critique Of Shareholder Value (Saint-Gobain Centre for Economic Studies)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Recent corporate governance scandals have brought to the fore the inherent contradictions of a capitalism dominated by financial markets. This challenging book by Michel Aglietta and Antoine RebA©rioux argues that capitalism`s basic premise - that companies must be managed in the sole interest of their shareholders - is incongruent with the current environment of liquid markets, profit-hungry investors and chronic financial instability. The authors advocate rather that a company should be managed as an institution where common objectives are developed for all stakeholders, and that this democratic principle should be extended to the management of collective savings to reduce macro-financial instability. These two conditions, they contend, could make contemporary capitalism a vehicle for social progress. In this context, Corporate Governance Adrift also analyzes the financial scandals of the Enron era, going beyond the malfunctioning of the gatekeepers to stress the failure of… [detailed...]

Corporate Governance And China`s H-Share Market (Corporations, Globalisation and the Law)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Using detailed case studies of the first nine mainland Chinese companies to be listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange (1993-94), Alice de Jonge examines the evolution of corporate governance law and culture in China`s H-share market. A story emerges not of tensions between ideas of corporate governance from two different legal systems - Hong Kong vs. mainland Chinese - nor about legal convergence as China adopts concepts from Anglo-American jurisdictions. Rather, it is a story of individual firms being pragmatic in mediating the different agendas of state-agencies that own or control them. Corporate Governance and China`s H-Share Market * looks at corporate governance in a cross-border context * is unique in providing a detailed understanding of China`s H-share market * reveals why a beer company was the first ever Chinese firm to be listed overseas. This fascinating work will appeal to postgraduate students and scholars of corporate governance, Asian law and legal… [detailed...]

Corporate Governance And Labour Management: An International Comparison

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis book is about the relationship between corporate governance regimes and labor management. It examines how finance and governance influence employment relationships, work organization, and industrial relations by means of a comparative analysis of Anglo-American, European and Japanese economies. The starting point is the distinction widely found in the corporate governance, business systems, and political economy literature between countries dominated by `shareholder value` conceptions of corporate governance and those characterized by `stakeholder` regimes. By drawing on a wide range of countries, the book is able to demonstrate the complexities of corporate governance arrangements and to present a more precise and nuanced exploration of the linkages between governance and labor management. Each country-based chapter provides an analysis of the evolution and key characteristics of corporate governance and then links this to labor management institutions and… [detailed...]

Corporate Governance and Accountability : What Role for the Regulator, Director, and Auditor?

Description: Dan Bavly takes a fresh look at how business is supervised and how that system can be improved. He begins by assessing the performance of the government regulator and suggests reasons for the failure to prevent many of the debacles of the recent past. New fiascoes often engender a spate of legislation, but the regulator remains the one who gets away--he is simply not accountable and does not shoulder the blame. Clearly, a new definition of regulator responsibility is required. Bavly points out essential ways to improve this system of corporate governance and accountability. [detailed...]

Corporate Governance and Finance (Advances in Financial Economics)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionPapers in this volume focus upon corporate governance, broadly defined as the system of controls that helps the corporation effectively manage, administer and direct economic resources. Questions of what and how to produce become equally important as organizations strive to better serve demanding customers. As a result, the design and control of effective organizations structure has been described by the vertical and horizontal relationships among the firm, its customers and suppliers. More recently, researchers have come to understand that the efficiency of firms depends upon the ability of participants to find effective means to minimize the transaction costs of coordinating productive activity. As financial economists have learned, resource allocation will be efficient so long as transaction costs remain low and property rights can be freely assigned and exchanged. An important problem that must be addressed is the so-called agency problem resulting from the natural… [detailed...]

Corporate Governance and Firm Organization: Microfoundations and Structural Forms

Description: Book DescriptionRecent scandals involving large firms, in the US and elsewhere, have intensified discussion regarding the role and conduct of the corporation. The contributors to this book argue that much of this debate has taken too narrow a view of theissue of corporate governance, and question some of the key assumptions of economic models. Drawing on insights from a variety of fields, including management studies, organization studies, economics and finance, political science, sociology, psychology, and legal studies, the contributors argue that these models fail to take account of the varied and complex behaviour of actors within the corporation. Instead the cognitive and motivational foundations of governance problems and possible solutions are re-worked to produce a broader conception of governance, and a new range of forms that this can take. The book argues that no one of these forms is the `solution` to the corporate governance problem. The book contains chapters from… [detailed...]

Corporate Governance for New Directors: The Basics and Beyond

Description: Appointment to a corporate board of directors is a tribute to an individual`s leadership abilities, business acumen, and integrity. It is literally a vote of confidence by a company`s shareholders that a particular individual can be relied upon to protect the shareholders interests and maintain the company on a responsible and profitable trajectory. During the past decade, however, board directorships have come to be cast in a different, and not always flattering, light. Corporate scandals have exposed numerous cases where directors were `asleep at the switch,` failing to carry out their fiduciary duties, with drastic consequences for the corporation and its shareholders. Directors now face increased risk of being held liable for corporate failures and malfeasance. Being a corporate director has become a potentially perilous undertaking. Corporate Governance for New Directors provides newly appointed directors with the tools needed to carry out their duties to the corporation… [detailed...]

Corporate Governance in Asia

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The impact of the economic downturn and the increase in financial scandals emerging from major corporations has generated a growing interest in governance issues, and has emphasized the need for companies to be transparent in their dealings with shareholders and the markets. Although the issues in Asia are fundamentally similar to those in the rest of the world, there are some crucial differences in the way in which Asian corporations acknowledge and confront these issues and in the political and legal frameworks under which they operate. Using examples of good and bad governance, Roche analyzes whether there is a uniquely Asian approach to governance issues. The book is organized into three parts: * Part I: Context and Perspectives on Governance provides a comprehensive overview of both national and international institutions involved in governance, and the organizations which attempt to promote it. * Part II: Corporate Governance and Compliance explores… [detailed...]

Description: Debates regarding corporate governance have become increasingly important in Japan as the post-war model of bank-based, stakeholder-oriented corporate governance faces the new pressures associated with globalization and growing investor demands for shareholder value. Bringing together a group of leading scholars from economics, law, sociology and management studies, this book looks at how the Japanese approach to corporate governance and the firm have changed in the post-bubble era. The contributions offer a unique empirical exploration of why and how Japanese firms are reshaping their corporate governance arrangements, leading to greater diversity among firms and new `hybrid` forms of corporate governance. The book concludes by looking at what effect these incremental but transformative changes may have on Japan`s distinctive variety of capitalism. [detailed...]
