Description

Corporate Governance: A timely update for business professionals and students. The recent global financial collapse has highlighted the need for a clear understanding of corporate governance. This new edition of Corporate Governance provides an authoritative overview of the key issues facing managers, boards of directors, investors, and shareholders. The book includes analysis of the financial crisis, its causes and consequences, as well as guidance on corporate governance guidelines and codes of practice. The authors examine 18 case studies of institutions and corporations in crisis, including Lehman Brothers, General Motors, American Express, Time Warner, IBM, and Premier Oil, to illustrate the importance of effective corporate governance. By understanding the role of corporate governance, readers can ensure that the right questions are asked and necessary checks and balances are in place to protect the long-term value of the enterprise.
