Corporate Governance and Ethics

Corporate governance, the set of policies, processes and customs by which an institution is directed, and business ethics, the study and examination of moral and social responsibility in relation to business practices and decision-making, are topics of increasing importance for financial management. How a company is governed influences rights and relationships among organizational stakeholders, and ultimately how it is managed, and the ethical management of the company will in turn increase its value. It is also vital for the managers of multinational enterprises (MNEs) to understand the differences in corporate governance systems in the different countries they do business to ensure success.
This course teaches the fundamentals of corporate governance and focuses on assessing the effectiveness and execution of governance roles and responsibilities in an ethical manner. This requires a thorough understanding of strengths and blind spots, recognizing the implications of behaviors and actions, and developing skills for addressing difficult governance situations and advancing monitoring and strategic goals and risks of and by a board of directors. Governance is contextual and requires judgement and students should expect to grapple with ambiguous situations that do not have simple solutions.
