Book Synopsis Governing the Modern Corporation: Capital Markets, Corporate Control, and Economic Performance by : Roy C. Smith
Download or read book Governing the Modern Corporation: Capital Markets, Corporate Control, and Economic Performance written by Roy C. Smith and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2005-12-14 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly seventy years after the last great stock market bubble and crash, another bubble emerged and burst, despite a thick layer of regulation designed since the 1930s to prevent such things. This time the bubble was enormous, reflecting nearly twenty years of double-digit stock market growth, and its bursting had painful consequence. The search for culprits soon began, and many were discovered, including not only a number of overreaching corporations, but also their auditors, investment bankers, lawyers and indeed, their investors. In Governing the Modern Corporation, Smith and Walter analyze the structure of market capitalism to see what went wrong. They begin by examining the developments that have made modern financial markets--now capitalized globally at about $70 trillion--so enormous, so volatile and such a source of wealth (and temptation) for all players. Then they report on the evolving role and function of the business corporation, the duties of its officers and directors and the power of its Chief Executive Officer who seeks to manage the company to achieve as favorable a stock price as possible. They next turn to the investing market itself, which comprises mainly financial institutions that own about two-thirds of all American stocks and trade about 90% of these stocks. These investors are well informed, highly trained professionals capable of making intelligent investment decisions on behalf of their clients, yet the best and brightest ultimately succumbed to the bubble and failed to carry out an appropriate governance role. In what follows, the roles and business practices of the principal financial intermediaries--notably auditors and bankers--are examined in detail. All, corporations, investors and intermediaries, are found to have been infected by deep-seated conflicts of interest, which add significant agency costs to the free-market system. The imperfect, politicized role of the regulators is also explored, with disappointing results. The entire system is seen to have been compromised by a variety of bacteria that crept in, little by little, over the years and were virtually invisible during the bubble years. These issues are now being addressed, in part by new regulation, in part by prosecutions and class action lawsuits, and in part by market forces responding to revelations of misconduct. But the authors note that all of the market's professional players--executives, investors, experts and intermediaries themselves--carry fiduciary obligations to the shareholders, clients, and investors whom they represent. More has to be done to find ways for these fiduciaries to be held accountable for the correct discharge of their duties.

Book Synopsis Law, Corporate Governance and Accounting by : Victoria Krivogorsky
Download or read book Law, Corporate Governance and Accounting written by Victoria Krivogorsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-04-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing internationalization of markets, the relaxation of constraints on capital flows between countries, and the creation of different economic unions -- the European Union in particular -- initiated the flow of capital, goods, and services across national borders, growth and diffusion of shareholding, and increased merger activity among the world’s largest stock exchanges. These changes have stimulated an interest in understanding developments in accounting and corporate governance in a newly qualitative way. Law, Corporate Governance, and Accounting sets out a framework for the analysis of institutional environments as the interconnected key tools of modern public corporations. Along with examining latest developments in the integrated formal structures for the formulation of international accounting principles, analyzing new accounting regulations and the extrapolating on the lessons that can be learned from the harmonization of accounting principles in Europe, this monograph provides the analyses of the convergence in both auditing and corporate governance as well as US perspective on IFRS adoption.
Book Synopsis Corporate Governance, Enforcement and Financial Development by : Chen Ding
Download or read book Corporate Governance, Enforcement and Financial Development written by Chen Ding and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔDing ChenÕs detailed institutional analysis of the development of the Chinese stock market brings the question of enforcement to centre stage. In doing so, she not only introduces readers to the particularities of the Chinese system; she also sheds new light on conventional debates about the law and economics of corporate governance.Õ Ð Andrew Johnston, University of Sheffield, UK ÔIn this book Dr Ding Chen has made an important theoretical contribution to our understanding of corporate governance in transitional economies and of corporate governance in China especially. Drawing upon the insights of New Institutional Economics theory she examines the interplay between formal and informal enforcement mechanisms relating to corporate governance in China. To support this argument the book breaks new ground by providing a comprehensive examination of enforcement actions in ChinaÕs stock market; her findings are at variance from conclusions found in other research, such as in the law and finance literature. Rather than simply imitating the dominant Anglo-American model of corporate governance, she argues that local conditions will greatly affect the choice of the most appropriate governance models. This has been especially so in China.Õ Ð Roman Tomasic, University of South Australia and Durham Law School, UK This important new book attempts to establish a fresh conceptual framework for the study of corporate governance by employing the new institutional economics of contract enforcement. This framework helps to clarify two critical issues including the role of law in financial development and whether there is an optimal corporate governance model that should be followed by countries attempting to develop their own stock markets. Applying this novel framework, the author conducts a comprehensive study on Chinese corporate governance and discovers that the Chinese stock market has rapidly expanded even in the absence of any effective institutions. She provides a credible explanation to this ÔChina puzzleÕ by arguing that the growth of the stock market is mainly driven by state guarantees, institutional rent seeking by state-owned companies, financial repression and investorsÕ speculation. Indeed, there is probably nowhere better to look than ChinaÕs stock market to assess the limits of the gradualist approach to financial development. As the book explains, the potential efficiency gains that could be created by a healthy, well-functioning stock market have been completely outweighed by the consideration of maintaining the existing political system. This book will appeal to scholars and students of economics and law with an interest in corporate governance, Chinese economic development and new institutional economics.

Book Synopsis Corporate Governance in the Banking Sector by : Bruno Buchetti
Download or read book Corporate Governance in the Banking Sector written by Bruno Buchetti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives an overview of the most important theories on Corporate Governance, investigating the myth and the reality of it. It argues that within the banking sector exist two new agency costs (i.e., bank depositors and shareholders vs. directors and bank depositors vs. shareholders and directors). These agency problems are difficult to reduce for two reasons. First, banks are complex and opaque. Second, government implicit guarantees and the deposit insurance systems reduce the monitoring of depositors. This book also takes a deep dive into research on CG in the banking sector via a unique and innovative literature review covering the time period between 2000-2020. It finds that some specific CG characteristics affect banks: risk appetite, performance, accounting quality, compensation and corporate social responsibility disclosure. Furthermore, this publication contends that institutional investors are changing CG for the better, describing how major financial markets factors such as rating agencies and sell-side financial analysts make CG visible. Additionally, it investigates how managerial biases and irrational investors can affect CG negatively, leading to company distress. All-in-all, this book makes a threefold contribution: for regulators, it offers suggestions on how to improve banks’ supervision; for researchers, it suggests new research topics; and for practitioners, it connects CG theory with real cases of CG failure.
Book Synopsis The Embedded Firm by : Cynthia A. Williams
Download or read book The Embedded Firm written by Cynthia A. Williams and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-11 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The globalization of capital markets since the 1980s has been accompanied by a vigorous debate over the convergence of corporate governance standards around the world towards the shareholder model. But even before the financial and economic crisis of 2008/2009, the dominance of the shareholder model was challenged with regard to persisting divergences and national differences in corporate law, labor law and industrial relations. This collection explores this debate at an important crossroads, echoing Karl Polanyi's famous observation in 1944 of the disembeddedness of the market from society. Drawing on pertinent insights from scholars, practitioners and regulators in corporate and labor law, securities regulation as well as economic sociology and management theory, the contributions shed important light on the empirical effects on the economy of the shift to shareholder primacy, in light of a comprehensive reconsideration of the global context, policy goals and regulatory forms which characterize market governance today.

Book Synopsis International Competition between Corporate Governance by : Blanca-Monica Panqueva-Bernal
Download or read book International Competition between Corporate Governance written by Blanca-Monica Panqueva-Bernal and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2006-02-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation has shown that indeed the internationalization of production systems and the globalization of the markets for goods, services and capital have triggered and intensified the competition between corporate governance systems. Similar to the competition in other economic areas, where, for example, domestic goods and factor prices tend to converge to the world prices after opening to international competition, over the years the traditionally diverse corporate governance systems have become more homogeneous. The elements, provisions and aspects where convergence has made more progress are: boards’ form and functions, strong minority shareholders’ rights, universal banking systems, bankruptcy law, the capital market as an important corporate financing source, investor-oriented accounting standards (e.g. IFRS) and employee ownership as a means to motivate staff to undertake firm-specific investments. However, convergence does not mean that the national systems have equally moved towards each other, rather the Principal-Agent model, followed by the USA, has prevailed. The main reason for the dominance of the Principal-Agent model seems to be the preponderance of the US-economy, particularly on global financial markets. Although this is not a topic of this dissertation, in the last two decades a competition between capital market- and bank-centered financial systems can be observed. The capitalmarket centered financial system, recommended by the Principal-Agent model, has gained importance, whereas the traditional leading position of credit institutions has impressively decreased.

The first sub-theme addresses recently identified issues, such as corporate governance reporting, corporate governance regulation differences between countries, governance and financial market economics, financial market supervision, and control and risk management. In turn, the second sub-theme focuses on international auditing standards, green/socially responsible investment, environmental and social accounting and auditing, CSR-related matters, legislation and CSR reporting differences for public listed companies, accounting for sustainable development performance, and sustainability assessment models. The third sub-theme puts the spotlight on financial assessment and diagnosis, modeling, hedging, fraud, bankruptcy, accounting and auditing ethics and ethical problems in financial markets. Taken together, the issues discussed here provide state of art theories and empirical evidence approached from broad perspectives, making the book a valuable resource for researchers, students and practitioners alike.

This book was released on 2023-05-13 with total page 838 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an open access book.Financial globalization plays a huge role in promoting the development of the world economy and the optimal allocation of world resources, stimulates the accelerated development of the international division of labor, and increases the international flow of production factors such as industrial transfer, capital transfer, and technology transfer. It enables developing countries to make up for the lack of their own capital and technology, and obtain industrial evolution, technological progress, and institutional innovation, thereby accelerating the speed of economic development; it also enables developed countries to open up cheap labor, raw material markets and broad consumer markets, prolonging product value. More profits, ease the economy, the contradiction of stagflation, and restore economic growth. The 8th International Conference on Financial Innovation and Economic Development (ICFIED 2023) aims to accommodate this need, as well as to: 1. provide a platform for experts and scholars, engineers and technicians in the field of financial Innovation and economic development to share scientific research achievements and cutting-edge technologies 2. Understand academic development trends, broaden research ideas, strengthen academic research and discussion, and promote the industrialization cooperation of academic achievements 3. Promote the institutionalization and standardization of Financial Innovation and Economic Development through modern research 4. Increasing the number of scientific publications for financial Innovation and economic development
Book Synopsis Global Governance in Accounting by : Jochen Zimmermann
Download or read book Global Governance in Accounting written by Jochen Zimmermann and published by Palgrave MacMillan. This book was released on 2008-05-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the recent transformations of national accounting systems. It extends comparative accounting literature using a new comprehensive framework, which embeds a governance perspective throughout the financial reporting process. The authors track transformations in standard setting, enforcement and disclosure regulation over time in three typical OECD countries. Modes and degrees of convergence illustrate where "global governance" in accounting has already been achieved and where national regulators still dominate the accounting agenda.
