| Summary: |
This book is intended to be a practical guide to best corporate governance practices
for public, private (including family-owned businesses), and nonprofit organizations,
using concrete real-life examples. Good corporate governance is
important to private companies that wish to attract bank and other institutional financing
and equity investors. Private family-owned businesses need good corporate
governance to establish dispute resolution mechanisms to prevent family
quarrels from harming the business, particularly after the founder has died or retired.
Not-for-profit organizations need to practice good corporate governance in
order to assure their contributors that their gifts will be well spent.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and accompanying Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) and listing rules legally mandate minimum corporate governance
practices for most public companies. This book will be helpful to boards of
directors and management of public companies that want to engage in the best
practices, not just minimum legal requirements. Public companies that engage in
best practices will generally be more attractive to investors and will receive higher
corporate governance ratings. |
