This book was released on 2016-02-14 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is currently a debate in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is over how directors of publicly held companies can be held accountable. Before addressing this question, we should determine when it is that a director violates her or his duties. This study seeks to bring focus to the accountability system in Saudi Arabia. It investigates a legal defect in that system: the Saudi Companies Law incorporates standards of conduct but lacks standards of review. This study argues that although directors’ duties have been formulated so that there are areas left to be developed by courts, Saudi judges do not retain residual lawmaking powers which they could use to fill a regulatory vacuum. It builds upon empirical evidence to prove the underlying reasons that the context has changed, which ultimately has created the need to reform the Saudi fiduciary duties system. New cases in Saudi Arabia evoke some of the contours of Delaware corporate law. New cases have triggered standards of conduct violations that might be identical to fiduciary violations in Delaware. Therefore, this study proposes to transplant Delaware standards of review to Saudi Arabia. It argues that the contextual change in Saudi Arabia after the establishment of the Capital Market Authority would make this transplant more significant. Closer analysis suggests that both systems are consensus on the shareholder primacy model. This convergence on the shareholder model inevitably ensures a functional convergence in the long run.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: Sehr Gut, University of Vienna, language: English, abstract: English: In today ́s business world corporate governance has become one of the most discussed and most important matters. Corporate governance criteria have been put right in the middle of investment decisions - especially in emerging markets. In addition to that, a series of events like business scandals, financial crises or business failures in the last 20 years has made corporate governance a key point in the business community in emerging markets, developing countries and economies in transition. There exists no general definition for the term corporate governance. Basically it can be viewed as a set of principles and rules by which a company is directed and controlled. Many countries have developed good corporate governance principles to improve the relationship between the shareholders of a company and the management. Factors like financial disclosure, more rights for shareholders and independent boards are crucial for investors who are looking for a stable growth of companies. Countries in the MENA region have put the implementation of such sound corporate governance codes in the middle of their agenda. Their aim is to create better economies and consequently a more attractive investment climate for possible investors in the future. This thesis tries to give the reader an insight into today ́s state of corporate governance in the Middle East and North Africa countries. The discussion is based on a survey which has been undertaken by the Hawkamah Institute for corporate governance in Dubai which focuses on the establishment of good corporate governance codes in this region.

Book excerpt: Good corporate governance ensures that companies use their resources more efficiently, protects minority shareholders, leads to better decision making, and improves relations with workers, creditors, and other stakeholders. It is an important prerequisite for attracting the patient capital needed for sustained long-term economic growth. This report provides an assessment of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) corporate governance policy framework. It highlights recent improvements in corporate governance regulation, makes policy recommendations, and provides investors with a benchmark against which to measure corporate governance in KSA. The corporate governance laws, regulations, and institutions that have been put in place generally reflect international good practice. In the wake of the market correction of 2006, market regulators focused on the need for better corporate governance via legal and institutional reforms. These included passing a Corporate Governance Regulation (CGR) for listed companies (2006), and further strengthening the supervisory functions across the financial sector. However, many of the laws and institutions are still relatively new and untested; awareness of the importance of good corporate governance is low, and implementation by companies in its early stages.

This book was released on 2023-01-30 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph contains an evaluation of the research dealing with the drivers and significance of corporate board diversity and corporate governance focused on Saudi Arabia. It specifically shows how to increase board diversity in a different culture and social setting. This is achieved by presenting more than two thousand items of secondary data and comparing these to data from 2020 to show the social change from the old to new diversity logics amidst the more general social change, with comparative analysis of global trends. The book will provide a clear picture of boardroom diversity in Saudi Arabia. This will contribute to knowledge through understanding board diversity and exploring whether there have been changes in the boardroom due to social structure shifts, and the extent of resistance. It will benefit both accounting and governance academics as well as the broader practitioner community. Furthermore, it will be important for those looking at social change and the role of the Saudi national plan Vision 2030 which provides a strategic framework to reduce the country’s dependence on oil, diversify its economy and develop its public sector. The first book to investigate boardroom diversity in Saudi Arabia Captures the change of Saudis boardroom in six demographic types of diversity Looks into the impact of social settings in Saudi culture by highlighting the Vision of 2030 Provides a comprehensive review of Saudi Arabia’s most recent corporate governance codes
