Corporate Governance

Introduction

Contemporary corporate governance started in

1992 with the Cadbury report in the UK

Cadbury was the result of several high profile

company collapses

is concerned primarily with protecting weak and

widely dispersed shareholders against self-

interested Directors and managers

Meaning

It is the system by which companies are directed

and control

The board of director are responsible for the

governance of their company

The shareholders role in the governance is to

appoint the directors and the auditors

Continue….

It is a process or set of systems and processes

to ensure that a company is managed to suit the

best interests of all

The stakeholders may be internal stakeholders

and external stakeholders

Good governance means that the board agrees

to being accountable to the shareholder and as a

result takes on the responsibility of directing and

controlling management

Tests for effective corporate governance

Whether the fund of the company have been

deployed for pursuing the main object of the

company

Whether the funds raise from financial institution

and the capital market have been utilized for the

purposes for which they were intended?

Whether the company has the core competence

to effectively manage its diversification?

Continue….

Whether there has been diversion of funds by

way of funds and advances or investment

companies

Whether the personal properties of the directors

have been late-out at a fabulous rent to the

company

Whether the provisions of the companies act,

FERA, factories act and other statutes are

complied with in letter and in spirit?

Continue….

Whether the practices adopted by the company

and its management towards its shareholders,

customers, suppliers, employees and public at

large are ethical and fair?

Whether the directors are provided with

information on the working of the company and

whether institutional and non-executive directors

play an active role in the functioning of the

companies?

Continue……

Whether the internal control in place are

effective?

Whether there is transparent financial reporting

and audit practices and the accounting practices

adopted by the company are in accordance with

accounting standards of ICAI?

WTO

WTO

The World Trade Organization (WTO)

Established on 1st January 1995

As a result of the Uruguay Round negotiations (1986-1994)

Located in Geneva, Switzerland

At its simplest:

“A global organization dealing with rules of trade between nations”.

Continue…

A rules-based, member-driven organization.

“Its main function is to ensure that trade flows as

smoothly, predictably and freely as possible.”

Created by 120 nations to supersede and extend the GATT.

Now:

148 member nations (over 97% of world trade).

32 ‘observer’ countries.

GATT

The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) 1947

Before GATT: several joint declarations of free-trade ideals—and failed attempts to create an international trade institution.

Under US leadership, the GATT was created in 1947—as a step toward the “ITO.”

GATT: 19 original “contracting parties.”

(WTO has now 148 members.)

Regulated trade in goods, only.

The Uruguay Round (1986-1994)

123 participating countries

Most difficult—and most ambitious—among all rounds of negotiation.

Lasted almost 8 years (1986-1994, in effect since 1995): the longest round.

Created the WTO in 1995.

Ultimately, very successful.

Agreed on the following

To offer most favored nation treatment to all

member

To offer reduced tariffs

To remove all subsidies

To remove all restriction on imports and exports

To ensure intellectual property rights

India made following commitments

To reduce tariffs

Rationalize tariffs

Simplify tax laws

Liberalize licensing of industry

Continue…

Liberalize administered pricing

Decontrol banking

Make capital market reform

Encourage FDI in core areas

General principles and objectives

Three main principles

Trade related aspects of investment measures

Trade related aspects of intellectual property

rights

Trade in service

Functions
