Conference Overview
Corporate governance is the mechanisms, processes, and relations by which corporations are controlled and directed. Governance structures and principles identify the distribution of rights and responsibilities among different participants in the corporation and include the rules and procedures for making decisions in corporate affairs.
The concept of Corporate Governance took roots in countries like the US and UK and has subsequently spread to other countries. After 1990, the transition from central planning to market-driven economies, particularly the privatization of state-owned companies, and the need to provide governance rules for the emerging private sector brought the issue of corporate governance to the center stage. As a fall out of the 1997 economic and financial crisis, Asian countries too became keenly interested in the issue of corporate governance. The OECD took early initiatives to address governance issues. Since the mid-1990s, at the international level, various corporate governance reports, guidelines, and regulations have come into existence.
In India, a small initiative was taken by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in the field of good corporate governance. Thereafter, various committees have been constituted to give recommendations in this regard. All these efforts focused the attention of the Indian corporate sector, on the imperative need to evolve new norms of governance to sustain and develop Indian industries on healthy lines and to constitute the corporate boards in such a manner that they manage the affairs of the corporate body with better accountability to shareholders and achieve transparency of operations with disclosure of both financial and non-financial data through annual and other periodical reports.
