It also examines the events that have led to the current thrust on corporate governance. Part II elaborates on the structure of the board and its development process. 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.
