Corporate Governance

Corporate governance deals with the complex set of relationships between the corporation and its board of directors, management, shareholders, and other stakeholders. In recent years, following continuing corporate failures, the regulators and legislators have intensified their focus on how businesses are being run. They are striving to create a template for new corporate governance and disclosure measures, which is beneficial for both the stakeholders and controllers. This course examines corporate governance practices as they currently exist in the USA, continental Europe, and Egypt as well as from selected countries around the world.
