Book An Overview of Corporate Governance in Iran  Case Study

Download or read book An Overview of Corporate Governance in Iran Case Study written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two major ways of determining the corporate governance practices of a country - one by undertaking a country level macro analysis of corporate governance rules and regulations focusing on the presence or absence of a particular corporate governance factor, the other is by undertaking a firm level micro analysis, focusing on implementation of corporate governance regulations. In this research paper we have quantified the corporate governance compliance of public companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE), to determine the overall corporate governance climate in Iran. We created a questionnaire comprising of 91 variables reflecting the Iran Business Code, and TSE's regulations (both of which were based on the OECD Principles of Corporate Governance). The variables were divided into four broad categories: shareholders rights, board responsibilities and structure, audit committee, and disclosures. We applied this questionnaire to 310 listed companies in TSE in 2013. The survey used publicly available information to gain a neutral view of the firms' corporate governance practices. Based on the survey we created a 100 point corporate governance compliance index, the TSE Corporate Governance ratings (TSECGR). We found that the highest compliance is in the category of audit committees, while weak compliance appears in the board responsibility and structure. The average score of all listed companies was 51 out of 100, and the Monetary Intermediation sector, Pharmaceutical & Medicinal Products sector and Financial Leasing sector had the highest rate. The findings of this paper provide an opportunity for setting a benchmark corporate governance index for firms listed in TSE, provides a survey of firm level corporate governance compliance in Iran, and we hope will act as a valuable decision making tool for both investors and managers.

Book Corporate Governance and Earnings Informativeness

Download or read book Corporate Governance and Earnings Informativeness written by Mehdi Sarikhani and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research is to study of the effect of corporate governance on earnings informativeness of companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange. The effect of variables of ownership concentration, management ownership, institutional ownership, corporate ownership, board composition, duality of the CEO and chairman roles and size of the board on the earnings response coefficient have been investigated. The sample consists of 70 companies between 2002 and 2008. The statistical model used for testing the suggested hypothesis in this research is 'panel data'. The results show that earnings informativeness has a positive and significant relationship with ownership concentration and institutional ownership. Also, no evidence was found indicative of the existence of a meaningful relationship between other variables of ownership structure and board structure and earnings informativeness. Furthermore, results show that there is no nonlinear relationship between management ownership and earnings informativeness.

Book Corporate Governance in Developing and Emerging Markets

Download or read book Corporate Governance in Developing and Emerging Markets written by Franklin N. Ngwu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, the Anglo-American model of corporate governance tends to prevail – but no two countries are identical. Governance outcomes in developing and emerging economies often deviate from what theory predicts, due to a wide range of factors. Using insights from New Institutional Economics, Corporate Governance in Developing and Emerging Markets aims to explain the different issues and cultural and legal factors at play, and put forward an alternative governance framework for these economies. Structured in three parts, this text investigates different models of corporate governance; it explores the realities of corporate governance in ten nations, including the ‘BRICS’ (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) and ‘MINT’ (Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria and Turkey) countries; and then considers corporate governance reform. This interdisciplinary text will be a valuable tool for students of corporate governance across Business, Economics and Law; and an equally useful resource for anyone working in or carrying out research in this area.

Book State Owned Enterprises in Middle East  North Africa  and Central Asia  Size  Costs  and Challenges

Download or read book State Owned Enterprises in Middle East North Africa and Central Asia Size Costs and Challenges written by Mr. Ernesto Ramirez Rigo and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-09-20 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to the COVID-19 shock, the key challenge facing policymakers in the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia region was how to generate strong, sustainable, job-rich, inclusive growth. Post-COVID-19, this challenge has only grown given the additional reduction in fiscal space due to the crisis and the increased need to support the recovery. The sizable state-owned enterprise (SOE) footprint in the region, together with its cost to the government, call for revisiting the SOE sector to help open fiscal space and look for growth opportunities.

Book Corporate Governance in the Common Law World

Download or read book Corporate Governance in the Common Law World written by Christopher M. Bruner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-29 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The corporate governance systems of Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States are often characterized as a single 'Anglo-American' system prioritizing shareholders' interests over those of other corporate stakeholders. Such generalizations, however, obscure substantial differences across the common-law world. Contrary to popular belief, shareholders in the United Kingdom and jurisdictions following its lead are far more powerful and central to the aims of the corporation than are shareholders in the United States. This book presents a new comparative theory to explain this divergence and explores the theory's ramifications for law and public policy. Bruner argues that regulatory structures affecting other stakeholders' interests - notably differing degrees of social welfare protection for employees - have decisively impacted the degree of political opposition to shareholder-centric policies across the common-law world. These dynamics remain powerful forces today, and understanding them will be vital as post-crisis reforms continue to take shape.

Book Tourism in Iran

Download or read book Tourism in Iran written by Siamak Seyfi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iran has long been regarded as an international pariah state in some parts of the international community. However, its negative image in many countries disguises its history of tourism and rich cultural and natural heritage. Following the July 2015 nuclear deal and the reduction in sanctions, Iran is focusing on international tourism as a means to generate economic growth in addition to its substantial domestic tourism market. Given the significance of tourism in the Middle East and in international politics, as well as restrictions on international mobility, this volume brings together the first contemporary collection of research on tourism in Iran. Written by experts based both within and outside of Iran, the chapters engage with a number of crucial issues including the importance of religion, the role of women in society, sustaining Iran’s cultural heritage, Iran’s image and the resistive economy to provide a benchmark assessment of tourism and its potential future in a troubled political environment. The book will undoubtedly be of interest not only to those readers who focus specifically on Iran but also those who seek a wider understanding of Iran’s role in the region and how tourism is utilised as part of national and regional economic development policies.
