Download or read book How Does the Quality of Corporate Governance Affect the Market Value of Business Firms in Israel written by Beni Lauterbach and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study we construct, for the first time in Israel, an index for ranking the quality of corporate governance of Israeli firms. The index, based mainly on principles that are common in existing international indices, focuses on four main topics (the abilities of the board of directors, audit and control, ethics and honesty, and transparency), and it includes 19 variables. An empirical analysis of 173 public companies (included in the TASE 100 and YETER 150 at the end of 2005) finds the following: 1. Disperse ownership companies and companies with a higher return on equity have better quality corporate governance; 2. There is a significant positive correlation between our index ranking the quality of corporate governance and a firm's relative value (Tobin's Q); The causality of this relation is, however, unknown, i.e., we do not show or argue that better corporate governance increases firm valuation; 3. The existence of an ethical code, few transactions with interested parties, early publication of periodical reports and the inclusion of a small number of directors who are also employees of the corporation, are components of the index that are most strongly correlated with the value of the firm; 4. Dual companies have a higher level of corporate governance and higher Q values.

Download or read book Collaborative Governance written by Neta Sher-Hadar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to explore collaborative governance arrangements in Israel. It offers a new, modular definition of collaborative governance, focusing on its contributions toward public values and democracy. The book discusses different kinds of collaborations, their scope, implications and impact on governability in Israel, a country which provides an interesting setting for learning about collaborative governance, given its heterogenous population and the nature of the relationship between the state’s civil service, the business sector and the civil society. The book presents examples derived from local, and central government levels, and from policy areas such as education, regulation and local government.

Download or read book Regulation and Corporate Governance in Private Companies An Empirical Analysis written by Keren Bar-Hava and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, private firms are recommended to adopt the same corporate governance rules that are mandatory for public firms. It is unclear, however, whether the high costs associated with such voluntary adoption of corporate governance rules by private firms are justified. A precedent regulation that exists in the Israeli market provides a unique setting for addressing this question. In Israel, since 2011, private companies with public debt (“bond companies”) must act like public firms in adopting corporate governance regulations. We hand-collected a dataset of 105 daily trading Israeli bond companies spanning various industries to test the market reaction to their first-time implementation of governance rules enacted within the framework of Amendment 17 to the Companies Law. The evidence shows an economically significant positive price change of the bond market throughout the milestone of adopting the new regulation. Consistent with this evidence, we also find a positive and significant market reaction to the appointment of outside directors in those companies. Also we find decrease in the bond reaction to control transaction after this Amendment, as compared to similar transactions that were approved before the Amendment. Our findings indicate that applying corporate governance rules raise bondholders' confidence by lowering the risk of the bonds.

Book excerpt: "First, the book does what any good legal writing should do: it transmutes an awesomely complex subject into a story more easily readable and understandable. The authors achieve that by explaining about how each element of ESG historically came to be, and thereafter elucidating at the more theoretical level, each element's conceptual underpinnings. Second, the book explains and elucidates, with remarkable depth and breadth, the wide array of disparate subjects that ESG encompasses. Third, most notable is the book's well-organized internal structure, which is designed to provide practitioners what they most need -a practical approach"--

Download or read book Regulation in Israel written by Eyal Tevet and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines de facto regulation frameworks and methods in a variety of areas, such as banking, transportation, cyberspace, the non-profit sector, and more. Authored by experts in the field, this book deals with the “big” questions about the idea of regulation. It reveals the tentativeness of current regulatory schemes, the difficulties in balancing between the shared objective of protecting the public interest and other interests such as market stability, and promoting competition. The case studies point to the need for better planning and for more coherent policies. This collection offers to students of public policy, management and law, policy makers and practitioners a broad spectrum of insights—theoretical and practical—and contributes to the ongoing deliberations on the ways that regulatory arrangements could serve the public interest more efficiently.
