Corporate governance

The issue of corporate governance is one that all companies should be aware of but it is particularly relevant to publicly traded companies where it is a key factor in the relationship between a company's directors and its shareholders. Corporate governance should have a strategic value for every company in determining the role of the directors, establishing a system of risk management, providing a system for performance evaluation and ensuring the board is accountable to its shareholders. Effective corporate governance where companies live by these principles can lead to more effective and profitable performance of companies.
