Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluated the Impact of Corporate Governance on Firms Financial Performance in Nigeria Quoted Banks in order to determine the Banks Financial Performance before and after the introduction of Code of Corporate Governance in Nigeria. The main objective of this study is to evaluate Board Composition with a view to determining its impact on Firms Financial Performance. Board Composition was used as measure of Corporate Governance while Return on Capital Employed (ROCE), was used to operationalise Financial Performance. The study is anchored on Shareholders theory. The Population of this study comprised fifteen (15) banks whose shares are quoted on Nigeria Stock Exchange. Judgmental sampling technique was used to select seven (7) banks from the entire Population of the study (which makes up the sample size). Data were obtained from secondary source (published financial statements of the selected quoted banks) covering the periods of 2003-2014. The method of data analysis utilised was Ordinary Least Squares Regression Analysis. A model was formulated. The findings from this study showed that Board composition has a negative, though insignificant impacts on ROCE during the 2003-2008 period (p1) and during the 2009-2014 period (p2). In conclusion, the way in which corporate governance is organised differs among countries, depending on the economic, political and social contexts. We therefore recommend that the directors of board should adhere to CBN regulations and guidelines in bank management, with this, they can achieve their aim and shareholders confidence will be restored, on the board.

This book was released on 2023-03-22 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 3.9, Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, language: English, abstract: This research is motivated by the need to show whether environmental, social, and governance performance (ESG) is highly linked to the African companies’ performances, and national culture. Besides, this study examines the impacts of audit quality and the national culture on the relationship between financial performance and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. The introduction of ESG practices has started lately in sub-Saharan African countries, but its implementation has been easier as the African context prones social factors that facilitate its development. Although several studies have explored the nexus between ESG, audit quality and firm financial performance, the outcomes of research on the financial performance-ESG’s relationship are contradicting and further research is needed. These areas include (1) the mediating role of audit quality in the relationship between corporate governance and firm performance; (2) the moderated mediating role of national culture in the relationship between ESG and financial performance through audit quality, (3) the impact of each ESG characteristics such as environment, social, governance scores and audit firm size on firm performance. Thus, the aims of the study are to examine (1) the impact of environment, social, governance criteria on firm financial performance; (2) the relationship environment, social, governance criteria and audit quality; (3) the effect of audit quality on firm financial performance; (4) the mediating role of audit quality in the relationship ESG and firm financial performance; and (5) the ESG performance of companies deviating between firms from different countries, the last key objective is to fill the research gap by examining the moderated mediating role of the four cultural dimensions of Hofstede –power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism, and masculinity- on the impact of ESG on firm financial performance through audit quality.

An Investigation of Financial Statement Reporting of Publicly Listed Companies in Nigeria written by Ademola Akinteye and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 862 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: Great Distinction, UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland (Accounting and Finance), course: Doctor of Philosophy in Finance, language: English, abstract: The dissertation examined Earnings Management and Corporate Governance Governance Practices of the firms that are listed on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The researcher investigated the published financial statements of all the listed companies across all the sectors of the exchange using empirical quantitative research methods. Al the variables of earnings management were extracted from the published annual financial statements and Directors Annual Reports through Content Analysis. The paper further explored all the variables of corporate governance as published by the Directors in the Annual Reports in the Financial Statements and through a face to face recorded interviews of the members of the Board of Directors, the members of the Audit Committees and the Heads of Internal Audit Functions in the Listed Public Companies. The study documented that companies that are listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange are involved in both the upward and downward earnings management practices. This findings cut across all the Sectors and categorization of the companies on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The research thus recommended the need for better oversight by the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee and the Market Regulators mainly the Security and Exchange Commission and the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The findings of the Research on Corporate Governance is mixed. In certain sectors, evidence of strong corporate governance are documented as reflected in the quality of Board Members, the Quality of the deliberations at the Board meetings, the independence of the Board, the independence of the Audit Committee and the independence and effectiveness of the Head of the Internal Audit function measured by the reporting line of the holder of this role. In some sectors, the ingredients of strong corporate governance were missing thus suggesting a need for a more stricter regime of corporate governance to be implemented in these corporations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reports the outcome of an empirical study on the relationship between corporate governance and firm performance of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises in Nigeria. SMEs are the backbone of developing economies but the sector is found to be underperforming in Nigeria due to poor management and inadequate funding which results in the increase of unemployment and slow economic growth. The study employed a survey research design using balanced panel data. The data was obtained from a sample of 55 Nigerian SMEs in Katsina State for the period 2012-2016. The outcome of the study revealed significant positive association between CEO tenure and family ownership with SMEs' performance and significant negative association between CEO duality and women on board with SMEs' performance. This indicates that family-owned SMEs and SMEs with longer-tenure CEOs are associated with increase in firm performance, whereas SMEs with CEO duality and women directors are associated with decrease in firm performance. The findings suggest that SMEs' owners should infuse a good corporate governance structure for increased performance. The study contributes to the body of knowledge theoretically by providing a factual effect of corporate governance on SMEs' performance and adds to the existing literature on the relationship between corporate governance and SMEs' performance. Practically, the study will benefit SMEs' owners/managers, government, management consultants, and financial institutions in policies and decision making relating to governance of SMEs. However, the study is limited to a few corporate governance mechanisms and a small sample of Nigerian SMEs for a period of five years.

Book excerpt: This book is written as addition effort to providing solution to increasing rates of corporate firms closure and shut down in Nigeria, especially in the last one decade.It is also designed to enable Nigerians, and, indeed African corporate firms resource managers identify and conform with global best practices in contemporary governance mechanisms.The book emphasizes the need for regulatory bodies and authorities to encourage, or even compel, firms managers to maintain a reasonable Board of directors size, as overly large Board may hinder effective performance of corporate firms.Again, the belief that external Board members may provide significant moderating influence on internal Board members was found not to be true and accurate, based on the performance indicators of firms studied in Nigeria.This book undoubtedly represents a credible source of information on the subject matter to Corporate firms managers, researchers, policy makers, including government diktats in Nigeria, Africa, and other parts of th

This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sixth peer review of the OECD Principles of Corporate Governance analyses the corporate governance framework and practices relating to corporate risk management, in the private sector and in state-owned enterprises. The review covers 26 jurisdictions and is based on a general survey of all participating jurisdictions in December 2012, as well as an in-depth review of corporate risk management in Norway, Singapore and Switzerland. The report finds that while risk-taking is a fundamental driving force in business and entrepreneurship, the cost of risk management failures is often underestimated, both externally and internally, including the cost in terms of management time needed to rectify the situation. The reports thus concludes that corporate governance should ensure that risks are understood, managed, and, when appropriate, communicated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crisis of confidence and credibility that marked the investment scene following the collapse of many companies around the world has increased public criticism of corporate governance practices. This paper used ex post facto research design to examine whether corporate governance mechanism accelerate firm market value. Data was extracted through content analysis from annual report of 93 non-financial firms listed on the Nigerian stock exchange from 2006 to 2015 base on availability of data. Data were analysed with pooled ordinary least square regression conducting diagnostic test to confirm the assumptions of the regression. Analysis revealed that: board size, board value. Board independence and board remuneration has insignificant negative effect on market value while auditors' credibility has positive but insignificant effect on the threshold specified in the code of Corporate Governance for the private sector or code of governance for non-for-profit entities as the case may be so that monitoring cost associated with corporate with corporate governance will not exceed the overall benefit.
