Abstract:
In 1995, a nearly complete collection of the annual reports of the earliest interstate and common carrier railroad in the U. S., the Baltimore and Ohio (B&O), was rediscovered in the archival collection at the Bruno Library of the University of Alabama. Dating from the company's inception in 1827 to its acquisition by the Chessie System in 1962, the reports present a unique opportunity for the exploration, study, and analysis of early U.S. corporate disclosure practice. This paper represents a study of the annual report information made publicly available by one of America's first railroad

Abstract:
The Business Roundtable, a large group of top CEOs, recently issued a statement defining the purpose of the corporation in stakeholder terms, a direct and intended reversal from an earlier statement that defined the duty of directors as serving the interests of stockholders. In this editorial, we briefly describe the major twists and turns in the stockholders-versus-stakeholders debate that make this statement so significant to management theory and practice. We then describe the implications of the statement for scholars and practicing managers. We end with a description of three specific res

Abstract:
The provisions of the FASB standard on accounting for income taxes, SFAS No. 96, were complex and controversial. Moreover, the FASB provided corporations with considerable flexibility in deciding when to adopt SFAS No. 96. Under these circumstances, managements had an opportunity to time their adoption decisions to best serve the interests of the corporation and stockholders. This study compares the attitudes and perceptions of controllers for corporations that adopted SFAS No. 96 early with controllers of corporations that postponed adoptions. While the controllers opinions on the usefulness

Abstract:
Presenting evidence from a 19th century corporation, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company (C&O), the paper shows that issues of corporate governance have existed since the first corporations were established in the U.S. The C&O used a stockholder review committee to review the annual report of the president and directors. The paper shows how the C&O stockholders used this committee to supplement the corporate governance structure. The corporate governance structure of the C&O is also viewed from a theoretical structure as espoused by Hart [1995].

Abstract:
Purpose – Directors play a hard-to-quantify but critical role in the success of corporations. Outside directors supplement the firm-specific knowledge of inside directors by providing expertise and monitoring. Prior research finds that outside directors who are commercial bankers can be both beneficial and costly to large, non-financial corporations. Smaller, bank-dependent corporations should benefit more than large firms from the services banker directors provide, but may also be more prone to the costs they can impose. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of bank depend

Abstract:
The key research question of this paper is to explore the major implications for corporate governance from the emergence of long-term stockholder and stakeholder value perspectives for the purpose of a corporation. The major implication for corporate governance is the significant opportunity for boards of directors to play a vital role in helping companies create long-term sustainable value. An initial step is to develop a clear understanding of the company’s business strategy and how long-term value is created through innovation and deployment of resources.

Abstract:
This paper looks at the insurance demand of a firm’s directors and officers using a sample of Canadian corporations (excluding firms from the financial services and mining sectors) from 1993-1999. More to the point, we study the demand for directors’ and officers’ insurance. Contrary to the financial distress theory of hedging, our results suggest that larger corporations are more likely to purchase D&O insurance. On the other hand, insurance is more likely when the firm is financially weak. Firms are also more likely to purchase D&O insurance when there are few outsiders on the board

Abstract:
Corporations often transact in their own mispriced stock. This activity, known as equity market timing, can generate substantial profits and increase the long-term stock price. We challenge a closely related popular view that market timing always benefits firm shareholders. Opportunistic financing maneuvers by a firm can negatively affect its uninformed stock owners because of adverse selection and the change in the firm’s short-term price, whereas the long-term returns do not accumulate to departing stockholders. The negative effect of market timing on stockholders increases with the share tu

Abstract:
This paper identifies eight reasons why it is rational not to trust large complex Anglo corporations and how these reasons could be removed. Two reasons are that directors are overloaded with information but also lack information independent of management to evaluate management and the business. A third reason is that directors do not have systemic processes to discover if their trust in management is misplaced. A fourth and fifth reason is that directors have absolute power to manage their own conflicts of interest and a dominant shareholder can enter into related party transactions that can

Abstract:
In the evolving global economy, boardroom governance has forged an increasing influence on what transpires in corporations today. Within the boardroom, expectations of board directors and executive management (key actors) have shifted dramatically due to the financial failures (i.e., Enron and WorldCom, etc.) and the ensuing global financial crisis in the 2000s. The belief is that these directors and managers contributed greatly to these crises (Boerner, 2011).

It looks at the institutional and policy framework for corporations - from their very beginnings, in entrepreneurship, through their governance structures, company law, privatisation, to market exit and insolvency.

Abstract:
This chapter considers corporate management and focuses on the regulation of those who govern the company, and the protection of the shareholders, who have no automatic right of management. The actual ‘running’ of the company is left to the directors, a relatively small number of persons who may take individual responsibility for aspects of the company’s business or may oversee the company as a whole. Directors have significant powers when acting for the company, and whilst a corporation possesses its own separate legal personality, independent of those who manage it, the actions of the company are performed, under authority provided by statute and the company’s constitution, by its directors. The chapter identifies the appointment of directors and their duties as codified from the common law into the Companies Act (CA) 2006, and the provisions for removing a director.

Abstract:
The Fourth Industrial Revolution provides companies with new opportunities, and business picks up allies represented by technologies that can change mechanisms of corporate decision making in corporations. Rapid development of technologies, which allows working more efficiently with information, can lead to the creation of a new system of stakeholder interaction, thanks to better analytics, transparency, and speed of decisions. In this regard, the analyst based on big data with the use of artificial intelligence (AI) is able to significantly affect the quality of decisions. How can the application of AI for analysis of big data be able to influence the decision-making process and to what extent can it influence the system of corporate relationships? To answer this question, the authors will try to describe how transformation of decision-making methodology at the Board of Directors level under the influence of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the development of AI technologies and big data, and what are the opportunities, limitations, and risks of the decision-making process with AI.
