Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents a response to a relative lack of academic research into corporate governance and especially corporate governance disclosure in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Specifically, the author explores recent developments in corporate governance disclosure produced by Libyan commercial banks. Along with other corporate governance mechanisms, disclosure plays an essential role in discharging accountability to and protecting shareholders, enhancing corporate performance and reducing the risk of financial crises. In order to improve corporate governance disclosure, it is necessary to understand the context in which it takes place. The MENA countries have unique characteristics, and those involved in the Arab Spring have been affected in different ways. This book provides up to date research into corporate governance disclosure in the context of Libya following the Arab Spring. The banking sector plays a crucial role in the Libyan economy and has specific characteristics which make corporate governance more important than in other sectors, yet research in this sector is rare. Furthermore, the banking sector in Libya has seen significant corporate governance reforms in recent years. As one of the most significant oil producing countries, Libya’s political and business environments have been dramatically affected by the Arab Spring. The author discusses how banks have responded to these reforms and the ways in which their corporate governance disclosure has evolved.

Book excerpt: This study narratively examines the concept of corporate governance in Libya from a political, economic, banking perspective. As such, the study explores how to develop corporate governance in Libya and it presents an overview of the development of Libya's accounting and auditing profession and the measures taken to improve the Libyan banking sector, concentrating on the major role of the Code of Corporate Governance (2010) issued by the Central Bank of Libya. The study concludes that the concept of governance in Libya is still in the early stages of development, and it is inhibited by the weaknesses in board governance, government intervention, and the weak legal and regulatory environment. corporate governance practice in Libya is thus operating within an environment that is very different from that in developed countries. It is crucial, therefore, for developing countries to have their own corporate governance frameworks that consider political, economic cultural and social factors found in each country.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the corporate governance characteristics and diversification strategies of 41 listed commercial banks within the Gulf Cooperative Council (G CC). Corporate governance characteristics include the effect of combined expert ise from an international top four auditor and a local auditor, the size of the board of directors, and the presence of a government shareholder; while diversif ication strategies include international and activity-based diversification. Us ing Ordinary Least Squares Regressions, we find evidence of a positive and signi ficant relationship between the combined expertise provided by both internationa l and local auditors and operating performance, a negative and significant relat ionship between board size and the banks' operating performance; however, no eff ect is found between the presence of a government shareholder. Moreover, empiric al investigations indicate that both diversification strategies have a positive and significant effect on the operating performance. However, these statistical findings are based on the assumption that the decision to diversify is an exoge nous one. Controlling for the endogenous diversification decision, our Two-Stag e Least Squares Regressions confirm our results and show that a negative and sig nificant relationship exists between the presence of a government shareholder an d banks' operating performance. Together, these findings are consistent with pr ior research on corporate governance and diversification strategies. Overall, t he results give insight into the optimal corporate governance and diversificatio n strategies for listed Gulf commercial banks.

This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of corporate reporting disclosure behaviour is influenced not only by environmental factors, but also by corporate-specific attributes (e.g. firm age, firm size, profitability, liquidity, government ownership, foreign ownership, and listing status); this has attracted many academic researchers in several countries to investigate the impact of corporate attributes on the extent of different disclosure levels (i.e. mandatory, voluntary or aggregate disclosure). To date, less attention has been paid by academic researchers to voluntary disclosure practices by financial institutions in general, and banking disclosure practices in particular, despite the fact that the banking sector plays a major role in economic growth in a country. Moreover, there is very little empirical evidence about the impact of commercial bank-specific characteristics on the extent of annual information voluntarily disclosed. Thus, this book intended to help develop the disclosure literature in relation to the commercial banking sector, which is currently sparse, due to the limited empirical research on the extent of banking disclosure and its determinants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has witnessed a series of corporate accounting scandals. Earnings management, as a phenomenon at the core of these scandals, is one of the main challenges confronting the effectiveness of different monitoring mechanisms such as corporate governance. Recently, and more precisely after the financial crises of 2008 2009, Jordan has shown substantial interest in integrating the pillars of corporate governance. Therefore, this research examines the effect of corporate governance mechanisms on earnings management activities among all publicly listed commercial banks on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) during the period 2013-2018. Earnings management was measured by the modified Jones' model. The characteristics examined are board size, CEO duality, board independence, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, audit committee size, audit committee independence and audit committee activity. In addition, two control variables have been used: firm size and firm performance. The findings of the study reveal that earnings management has a significant positive relationship with both board size and institutional ownership, and a significant negative relationship with total assets.
