Reseña del editor:

A perfect supplement for courses in Corporate Finance, Accounting, a variety of Management courses like Strategy, Ethics and/or Business and Society, and Business Law. An overview of the corporate governance system in a flexible, modular format. Today the term "corporate governance" is familiar to almost everyone-however, this is mostly due to the emergence of so many shocking corporate scandals. The flexible, modular format of Corporate Governance sheds light on these scandals through a detailed explanation of our corporate governance mechanism, the various incentives within today's governance system, a thorough explanation of the recent problems and scandals, and offers students potential solutions in context. The Third Edition of Corporate Governance includes up-to-date material on the economic crisis of 2008-2009 and offers current scholarly research in Recent Research boxes throughout the text.
