This course explores key topics in corporate governance, comparing how companies are regulated in the uk, us, and eu. You will gain a thorough introduction to the key principles of corporate law, including the roles and responsibilities of directors and the rights of shareholders.
You will also learn about the widely accepted best practices for corporate governance that companies are expected to follow today. Additionally, the course will also look at current hot topics, such as shareholder activism, short-term thinking in companies, how executive pay is regulated, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and the growing focus on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) investing. We will also explore the ongoing debate about the true purpose of corporations: to make money for their owners or serve (also) broader, societal goals.
Who really holds the power in a corporation- the board, the shareholders or someone else? How do companies balance making profits with social and environmental responsibilities? Why are corporate laws different across the UK, US and EU and what impact does that have on business decisions?
