Book Synopsis Corporate Governance and Chairmanship by : Adrian Cadbury
Download or read book Corporate Governance and Chairmanship written by Adrian Cadbury and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-10-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate governance has become a major issue in business over the last decade. Adrian Cadbury has played a central role in developing policies, good practice, and our understanding of the complex issues involved. In 1992 he chaired the committee, sponsored by the Bank of England, whose Report on the Financial Aspects of Corporate Governance (commonly known as the 'Cadbury Report') put issues of corporate governance on the map. Ten years on, Cadbury now reflects on issues of corporate governance and chairmanship drawing on his own business and policy-making experience. In the book, he discusses and explains the central issuse of corporate governance; provides practical advice to chairmen and directors on their roles and responsibilities; and surveys the major codes of practice that have been developed in the last decade. He also considers the implications of the current review of company law and speculates on the implications of electronic developments for shareholders' voice and voting, the extent of a company's social responsibility, and the changing relationship between boards, managers, and investors. This book is both an informed commentary and a practical guide. Cadbury's insights will prove essential reading for anybody taking on senior roles in companies and other public organizations, and will provide well-grounded analysis for management academics, students, and advisers.

Book Synopsis The Audit Committee: Performing Corporate Governance by : Laura F. Spira
Download or read book The Audit Committee: Performing Corporate Governance written by Laura F. Spira and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we need to understand audit committees? The Cadbury Committee recommended that UK companies should adopt them in response to financial scandals that have stemmed from dubious financial reporting practices. In other countries, similar commissions have made similar recommendations and audit committees are now a common institution. However, many practitioners doubt whether an audit committee really does much to ensure the integrity of a firm's financial statements because, as outsiders, members don't know enough to dig deeply beneath the numbers. The Audit Committee: Performing Corporate Governance argues that such criticism overlooks the ceremonial function of these committees. The audit committee is an arena where members can form and strengthen shifting and fragmentary networks with each other and with the external auditors. Within these networks, both consensus and independence are demonstrated, generating comfort, which legitimises the company and maintains its access to external sources of capital. The audit committee is a key part of the corporate governance structure within an organisation. Many in the UK have been patched together to meet regulatory requirements and their operation is poorly understood because few people other than their members have access to their deliberations. In this account of the world of audit committees the practitioner will find the ethnographical perspectives on ceremonial performance, consensus, independence, and comfort both familiar and different. It's like looking at a photograph of something commonplace from an unusual angle or through a strange-shaped lens.

Book Synopsis The Cadbury Code and Recurrent Crisis by : Donald Nordberg
Download or read book The Cadbury Code and Recurrent Crisis written by Donald Nordberg and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book raises questions about a hallmark mechanism of corporate governance – the use of codes of practice. It undertakes a critical examination of the origins and development of the UK code of corporate governance, which influenced codes devised around the world and practices of organisations well beyond the world of corporations listed on stock exchanges. Much lauded as a model of good governance, its core principles have persisted for almost 30 years. Yet during that time repeated crises in corporate governance have arisen, suggesting that it has not fully addressed the problem it was meant to solve. This book will be valuable reading for scholars working on business ethics, corporate governance, and business history.

Book Synopsis Corporate Governance Codes for the 21st Century by : Jean J. du Plessis
Download or read book Corporate Governance Codes for the 21st Century written by Jean J. du Plessis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-19 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is the first comprehensive consideration, since the UK Cadbury Report recommended a voluntary Corporate Governance Code, of the question whether Corporate Governance Codes are the most effective way of ensuring adherence to good corporate governance principles. There is no doubt that the idea of voluntary compliance with good corporate governance practices, based on the principle of ‘comply or explain’, has captured the imagination of the world. It is probably one of the best and most comprehensive examples of ‘self-regulation’ ever seen in any area where the society could be affected significantly, for current purposes by corporations.However, is this the most effective way of ensuring that corporations act responsibly and adhere to good corporate governance principles? Have these Codes really improved corporate governance practices significantly? Is it time for a rethink and, at least in certain areas, start to rely more on ‘hard law’ and clearer expectations to ensure compliance? All these issues are addressed in the book.

Book Synopsis The Cadbury Committee, Corporate Performance, and Top Management Turnover by : Jay Dahya
Download or read book The Cadbury Committee, Corporate Performance, and Top Management Turnover written by Jay Dahya and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1992, the Cadbury Committee issued the code of Best Practice which recommends that boards of U.K. corporations include at least three outside directors and that the positions of chairman and CEO be held by different individuals. The underlying presumption was that these recommendations would lead to improved board oversight. We empirically analyze the relationship between CEO turnover and corporate performance. CEO turnover increased following issuance of the code; the negative relationship between CEO turnover and performance became stronger following the code's issuance; and the increase in sensitivity of turnover to performance was concentrated among firms that adopted the code.
