The Impact

The role of corporate governance (CG) is to ensure functioning of companies in accordance with their formulated objectives to ensure growth of corporate assets and satisfaction of the owners. In addition to management of the company, there are other stakeholders whose interests need to be considered in meeting the owners' objectives. These include creditors, employees, clients, and the wider context of the business. The aim of this paper is to explore and compare the impact of selected financial and non-financial determinants representing the interests of these groups on corporate financial performance. The influence of determinants of CG on financial performance, measured by return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and return on sales (ROS) indicators, is investigated by means of correlation analysis. The sample of enterprises used consists of non-financial joint-stock companies listed on the Bratislava Stock Exchange, insurance companies, and banks based in Slovakia. The findings show that each of the investigated determinants of CG affects financial performance of companies. ROA, ROE and ROS of share issuers are significantly influenced by the total equity (EQ), average remuneration (AR) and number of the Board of Supervisor members (BSM). With banks, performance indicators are only influenced by total personal costs (PC). ROA, ROE and ROS of all companies are influenced by the dividend ratio (DR), EQ, AR and BSM.

The corporate governance measures emphasize on presence of independence of the board of directors to bring objectivity and reducing the agency cost; whereas the institutions have the ability, skills and time to supervise the activities of the management and channelize it to better financial performance. The objective of this study is to explore the effect of independence of the board of directors on the financial performance of the firms. The independence was gauged by number of independent directors and non-executive directors, chairing of board committees by independent directors, institutional holding in the firm, and presence of institutional directors on the board. The financial performance of the firm is gauged using the return on equity (ROE) and return on assets (ROA). The corporate governance and financial performance data comprising of 75 firm years from 2014 to 2018 of the firms listed in the cement sector of the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) were selected. GLM regression was performed to study the relationship between the variables. The results suggest that the majority of independence on the board of directors do not affect the financial performance of the firm; the independence in the board committees negatively affects the financial performance, whereas the presence of institutional holding and director in the firm does not have any effect on the performance of the firm. The study will provide a basis for future studies to find the association that independence can bring objectivity, reduce agency cost, and affect the performance of the firm.

Prolific research examining the impact of a good corporate reputation on financial performance has bestowed equivocal findings. Despite this inclusivity, corporate reputation continues to gain impeccable importance in sustaining superior performance. Corporate reputation has emerged as an important asset in emerging markets such as India, where firms are facing competition at the global level. An endeavor has been made through current study to re-examine the reputation–performance liaison in a different economic setting deploying a different measure of corporate reputation. Panel regression technique has been applied on top 500 Indian companies constituting Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) 500 index to observe the impact of corporate reputation on subsequent financial performance during the period ranging from April 1, 2002 to March 31, 2012. The findings of the study reveal that past reputation (captured through listing age) has a significant positive impact on all three measures of financial performance (return on assets [ROA], return on equity [ROE], and asset turnover ratio [ATR]). Hence, the results are in line with previous studies that consider reputation as a strategic resource necessary to enhance firm performance. The study bears significant implications for corporate managers that they should manage the reputation of their organization effectively and use it as a strategic tool to gain competitive advantage.
