Interest in corporate governance is growing at an exponential rate. Improvements in corporate governance practice are being orchestrated at a global level. International bodies such as the Organization for Economic Development (OECD) are developing internationally acceptable standards of corporate governance.
The text includes a number of contemporary illustrations and case studies, and provides students with questions for reflection and discussion at the end of each chapter. The text is designed specifically to accompany a one-semester module in corporate governance and is oriented toward undergraduates studying accounting and finance, business and management, as well as toward MBA (Master of Business Administration) and other postgraduate students taking modules with a corporate governance component. However, given the growing interest in corporate governance issues, we hope that a wide range of other readers may find the book useful.
