It also highlights the issues related to compensation, the performance review of directors as well as the importance of leveraging good governance for competitive advantage. Part III gives a broad view of the governance-related problems associated with the typical ownership patterns and of capital market institutions from the stakeholder perspective. The ground rules for a director to perform responsibilities and duties are also discussed in this part. Part IV, consisting of a single chapter, concludes the book with a discussion on the future of corporate governance.With its comprehensive coverage and approach, and its real-world examples and case studies, this book would also serve as an authoritative guide for professionals.
