This study examines the effectiveness of the corporate governance structure when coping with any potentially unexpected events. For the purpose of this research, an event study has been conducted in order to investigate the market responses of various firms through the Cumulative Average Abnormal Return (CAAR) of the stocks listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). The stocks data under consideration is that which was presented after the assassination of Benazir Bhutto in 2007. The overall results indicate that firms that are governed conventionally do not perform well in the markets during a crisis situation. In our comparison of conventionally, and non-conventionally governed firms, the overall pooled results show that the former record a lower CAAR. This, in short, indicates that conventional corporate governance structures may not be equipped to take timely and dynamic actions that are deemed necessary in the face of a crisis. Moreover, our results suggest that firms which have less diversified ownership, and governance mechanisms are less vulnerable to such unanticipated events. There are two reasons that support our hypotheses: first, strict governance mechanisms, and a resultant cautious/conservative approach may not allow firms to take timely and proactive decisions during these situations and second, there is a lower chance of existing agency problems, as family owners would be working for the protection of their own wealth during these events. Therefore, our findings ultimately reveal that the conventional corporate governance structures that work during normal time period, may become ineffective during a crisis. This study, aims to fill a gap in the literature in order to provide fresh insights into the stock market dynamic, and corporate governance risk management. Furthermore, it also highlights the benefits of family owned structures, and unconventional corporate governance systems, that may outperform conventional governance structure in some situations. This, however, raises the question whether one governance framework could be the correct fit in all the situations.

Setting a new benchmark for studies of technocracy, the book shows that a solution to the challenge of populism will depend as much on a technocratic retreat as democratic innovation. Esmark examines the development since the 1980s of a new 'post-industrial' technocratic regime and its complicity in the populist backlash against politics and political elites that is visible today. The new technocracy – a combination of network governance, risk management and performance management – has, the author argues, abandoned the overtly anti-democratic sentiments of its industrial predecessor and proclaimed a new partnership with democracy. The rise of populism, however, is a clear sign that the inherent problems of this partnership have been exposed and that technocracy posing as democracy will only serve to exacerbate existing problems.

The study was to assess on corporate governance and risk management in Tanzania. The study was guided by three objectives which were to assess if transparency, disclosure and audit have significant effect on risk management of the firm, to assess if the board of directors have significant effect on risk management of the firm and evaluate if the ownership structure have significant effect on risk management of the firm. Furthermore, we assess how corporate governance and particularly board of directors, ownership structure, transparency disclosure and audit can affect risk management practices in the context of Dar es Salaam stock exchange listed banks. By the use of a content in analysis approach, the level of exposing the risks in terms of likelihood, consequences of such risk and the strategies used for managing that risk were identified for each kind of risk by using attributes. The results show that corporate governance is related to board of directors, ownership structure, transparency, disclosure and audit play a positive significant and crucial role in establishing an integrative risk management approach. The results from data collected demonstrate that corporate governance has positive significant effect in determining the the good quality of risk management through the level of risk-taking in decisions, especially in terms of financial risks management.

This paper analyses how the main institutional factors characterizing corporate governance systems around the world affect the relationship between ownership structure and firm performance. Our analysis gives rise to the following remarks. First, ownership concentration and insider ownership levels are determined by several institutional features such as investor protection, development of capital markets, activity of the market for corporate control, and effectiveness of boards. Second, the relationship between ownership concentration and performance is not directly affected by these institutional factors. Third, there is, however, a direct influence of corporate governance characteristics on the relationship between insider ownership and performance.

Following the release of the King III report on Corporate Governance for South Africa, which became effective in March 2010, South African companies are expected to embrace the concept of integrated reporting in terms of which they are required to provide details of their strategies, corporate governance, risk management processes, financial performance and sustainability. More importantly, companies need to show how these components of integrated reporting are linked to one another so that stakeholders can make informed decisions about such companies’ current performance as well as their ability to create and sustain value in the future. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the level of reporting by South African listed companies has improved since the release of the King III report. It was subsequently found that there have been some progress in this regard, but there is still much room for improvement if the objectives of integrated reporting are to be fully met.
