Abstract:

Frequent incidences of bank failures in Nigeria resulting in enormous losses of investments and jobs have raised questions about the level of banks' compliance with the code of corporate governance. This single exploratory case study shifted attention from the banks to the regulators of banks in Nigeria, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), to find out the problems they may be encountering in getting the banks to be fully compliant. Purposeful sampling was used to select 25 senior participants who were directly involved with the monitoring of banks from CBN. The agency theory served as the conce

Abstract:

The recent corporate scandals at Cadbury Nigeria Plc and Oceanic Bank Plc in Nigeria not only uncovered devastating incidents of corporate malpractices within Nigerian firms but they also appear to highlight the ineffectiveness of the existing regulatory structure of companies in the country.

It analyses the effectiveness of the regulatory framework of corporate governance under the Nigerian Companies and Allied Matters Act 1990 ("CAMA

Corporate governance issues resulting from bad governance, fraudulent activities, insider abuse, and corruption have attracted the attention of shareholders and regulators in the banking industry.

The Central Bank of Nigeria removed 8 managing directors and executive directors due to bad governance, nonperforming loans of 61%, and toxic assets of $13.3 billion; the Central Bank injected 620 billion naira into the banks.

The growing lack of confidence in public companies arises from the recent accounting scandals and corporate collapses, which have been attributed to the consequences of separation of ownership and control in modern firms.

<p>The corporate governance codes are a way of creating trust for companies in national financial markets. The problem with implementing different codes within the European Union has lead to that the trust has been increased for the companies within the different countries but not internationally, within the European Union. This means that investors will have to look into each country code to decide if a company existing in a financial marketplace can be trusted. A resolution for creating trust internationally could be to create a common code for the European Union. Therefore the aim of our r

<p>Problem: After several corporate scandals concerning accounting around the world a discussion concerning corporate governance arose. The public demanded greater insight and better corporate governance in public companies. The discussions led to the development of codes of corporate governance, codes such as the Sarbanes Oxley Act, the Combined Code and the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance. The Swedish code is a clarifying of the Swedish law, a codification of praxis and in some cases an increase in the demands on reporting of information from the companies.</p><p>Purpose: The purpose of

The aim of the master’s thesis is to analyse the corporate governance in the Cyrrus, a. s.

Bakgrund: De stora redovisningsskandalerna inom bolag som Enron, Worldcom och Palarmat var startskottet för den epidemi som sedan kom att spela en stor roll vid förbättrandet av bolagsstyrningen bland aktiebolag världen över. Kraven på bolagen ökade att informationen som släpptes var tillförlitlig och fullständig. För att säkerställa detta togs svensk kod för bolagsstyrning fram som ett komplement till lagstiftningen berörande aktiebolag. Koden kräver ingen obligatorisk tillämpning i att implementera funktionerna utan har som krav att bolagen ska göra ett aktivt ställningsantagande vid inrätta

Finansiella skandaler som orsakats av bolagsmisslyckanden ligger till grund för diskussioner om förtroendet för den finansiella marknaden, därför kan implementeringen av bolagsstyrning och hur förtroende skapas inom banksektorn vara intressant att granska. Syftet med den här studien är att få en förståelse för förtroendeskapande genom implementeringen av bolagsstyrning på olika verksamhetsnivåer. Samt att granska de etiska värdegrunderna för implementeringen av bolagsstyrning ur ett förtroende-perspektiv.

Introduction Since 2009 it has been legislated that Swedish listed public companies should establish an audit committee. The law and the code gives the board as a whole the possibility to operate the function of the committee. Former research of audit committee’s effect on audit fee have been made in several countries with various results. In this study, we aim to analyze how audit committees in companies listed on the Stockholm stock exchange can affect the audit fee.

Abstract:

Could shareholder primacy, with its assumed short-termist practices, have had its day when it comes to managerial activity centered on creating corporate value? Many business and opinion leaders appear to take this position, not least Jack Welch who famously declared 'shareholder primacy is the dumbest idea in the world!' Indeed, in a post-Crash economy has a wider stakeholder focus with a longer-term outlook superseded any business notions of shareholder primacy and wealth maximization? This research examines these possibilities through a consideration of the narrative companies produce, such

<p>In the recent years auditing scandals all around the world, deficient internal control has attracted a lot of attention. This has contributed to further requirements on insight and internal control. Those scandals have seriously damaged the auditor’s profession and contributed to a reduced trust among the public. Therefore an extensive work to recover and stringed the trust was started all around the world. In the USA, the Sarbanes- Oxley Act was introduced in year 2002. In Sweden, the Code group has carried out a similar work and introduced the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance in July

Abstract:

Currently, different legal systems are starting to demand criminal responsibility of corporate bodies. The Opinion on the New Criminal Code, prepared by the Justice and Human Rights Commission of the Congress of the Republic of Peru, follows this trend, proposing an exemption from liability in case the corporate body counts with a criminal compliance.Given this situation, in this article, the authors answer the arising questions: what does criminal compliance stands for? What are the accessory consequences of the criminal liability of corporate bodies in our current legislation? What are the n
