Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: 82/100, course: Business English, language: English, abstract: Governance refers to the processes and structure by which the business and affairs of the company are directed and managed. The primary objective of sound corporate governance is to contribute to improved corporate performance and accountability in creating long term shareholder value. The main objective of this term paper is a brief overview of possibilities to give the board of directors reasons for improving the long term shareholder value. In order to achieve this goal the second chapter of this term paper deals with the concept of corporate governance itself. In taking a closer look at some basic approaches the main tasks and individual and team objectives should be brought out. The third chapter deals with the so-called principal-agent-problem. The essence of the agency-problem is the separation of ownership und control or the conflict of interests among owners and managers. Chapter four introduces remuneration systems which are qualified to solve the agency problem and satisfy both: owners and managers of a company. Finally, chapter five concludes the paper.

Download or read book Pay Without Performance written by Lucian A. Bebchuk and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The company is under-performing, its share price is trailing, and the CEO gets...a multi-million-dollar raise. This story is familiar, for good reason: as this book clearly demonstrates, structural flaws in corporate governance have produced widespread distortions in executive pay. Pay without Performance presents a disconcerting portrait of managers' influence over their own pay--and of a governance system that must fundamentally change if firms are to be managed in the interest of shareholders. Lucian Bebchuk and Jesse Fried demonstrate that corporate boards have persistently failed to negotiate at arm's length with the executives they are meant to oversee. They give a richly detailed account of how pay practices--from option plans to retirement benefits--have decoupled compensation from performance and have camouflaged both the amount and performance-insensitivity of pay. Executives' unwonted influence over their compensation has hurt shareholders by increasing pay levels and, even more importantly, by leading to practices that dilute and distort managers' incentives. This book identifies basic problems with our current reliance on boards as guardians of shareholder interests. And the solution, the authors argue, is not merely to make these boards more independent of executives as recent reforms attempt to do. Rather, boards should also be made more dependent on shareholders by eliminating the arrangements that entrench directors and insulate them from their shareholders. A powerful critique of executive compensation and corporate governance, Pay without Performance points the way to restoring corporate integrity and improving corporate performance.

This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall quality of Peru’s supervisory approach and regulation of the banking sector is strong. Some areas for enhancement remain. A key area that needs strengthening relates to the powers and regulatory framework for consolidated and cross-border supervision. The FSAP undertook a full graded Basel Core Principles (BCP) assessment of the essential criteria. The 2011 BCP update assessment found that bank regulation and supervision was of high quality and no principles were scored non-compliant or materially non-compliant. The current assessment shows that the SBS has maintained and further enhanced its regulatory and supervisory framework.

Download or read book Conflict of Interest in Global Public and Corporate Governance written by Anne Peters and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conflict of interest occurs at all levels of governance, ranging from local to global, both in the public and the corporate and financial spheres. There is increasing awareness that conflicts of interest may distort decision-making processes and generate inappropriate outcomes, thereby undermining the functioning of public institutions and markets. However, the current worldwide trend towards regulation, which seeks to forestall, prevent and manage conflicts of interest, has its price. Drawbacks may include the stifling of decision-making processes, the loss of expertise among decision-makers and a vicious circle of distrust. This interdisciplinary and international book addresses specific situations of conflict of interest in different spheres of governance, particularly in global, public and corporate governance.

Download or read book Rethinking Corporate Governance in Financial Institutions written by Demetra Arsalidou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many deep-seated reasons for the current financial turmoil but a key factor has undoubtedly been the serious failings within the corporate governance practices of financial institutions. There have been shortcomings in the risk management and incentive structures; the boards’ supervision was at times weak; disclosure and accounting standards were in some cases inadequate; the institutional investors’ engagement with management was at times insufficient and, last but not least, the remuneration policies of many large institutions appeared inappropriate. This book will provide a critical overview and analysis of key corporate governance weaknesses, focusing primarily on three main areas: directors’ failure to understand complex company transactions; the poor remuneration practices of financial institutions; and, finally, the failure of institutional investors to sufficiently engage with management. The book, while largely focused on the UK, will also consider EU and Australian developments as well as offering a comparative angle looking at the corporate governance of financial institutions in the US.
