Rethinking Corporate Governance in Financial Institutions

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

There are many deep-seated reasons for the current financial turmoil but a key factor has undoubtedly been the serious failings within the corporate governance practices of financial institutions. This book provides a critical overview and analysis of the key weaknesses, focusing on three main areas: directors' failure to understand complex company transactions, poor remuneration practices of financial institutions, and the failure of institutional investors to sufficiently engage with management. The book while largely focused on the UK, will also consider EU developments as well as offering a comparative angle looking at the corporate governance of financial institutions in the US.
