IIMB Management Review

Compliments of the season. As we go through the 50th year of India's independence, may 1998 be the harbinger of success and well-being to the country, and indeed, to the world at large. Small and Medium Enterprises have been the engines of growth in several economies. India is no exception. SMEs help to add customer value in ways that larger organisations may not always be able to replicate. There are, of course, aberrations, as, for example, when categorisation into SMEs is dependent not upon their inherent economic competencies and capabilities, but on the need to subserve political or other societal …


Corporate Governance In India: Disciplining The Dominant Shareholde, Jayanth Rama Varma Oct 1997

Corporate Governance In India: Disciplining The Dominant Shareholde, Jayanth Rama Varma

IIMB Management Review

Corporate governance problems in India are very different from that of, say, the US or the UK where the issue is essentially that of disciplining the management who have ceased to be effectively accountable to their owners. The problem of the Indian corporate sector is that of disciplining the dominant shareholder and protecting the minority shareholders. The role of two such disciplining forces - the regulator and the capital market has been discussed.

IIMB Management Review

While enhancing corporate governance standards deserves the attention it is receiving now, some stark realities need to be appreciated. While on this, should we not look at the co-operatives as well?

Toward Excellence In Board Performance, N Balasubramanian

IIMB Management Review

Is the board of directors the heart and soul of a company as it should be, ideally, or merely an 'old boy's club' which rubber stamps decisions taken by the CEO? Can it be a meaningful instrument of corporate governance? Various aspects such as the creation and running of an effective board, the difference between directing and managing, the interface between the board and the CEO, including the public sector perspective on the issue have been discussed by academicians and senior corporate executives.

Governing Corporate Governance, S Raghunath Dec 1996

Governing Corporate Governance, S Raghunath

IIMB Management Review

Interest in corporate governance has increased dramatically in recent months, spurred by the increased activism of regulatory bodies, the rise of the institutional investor, the takeover moves in the corporate world and the advent of investigative reporting in business journalism. The question is whether inherited governance structures and conventions remain appropriate and what can be done to make them effective. Problems arise because of ineffective governance and the myopic view of the market. Companies chronically underperform because management is too responsive to short term pressures to increase profits. Understanding what affects the quality of corporate governance requires a careful consideration …


Corporate Governance: What It Means And What It Needs, N Balasubramanian Dec 1996

Corporate Governance: What It Means And What It Needs, N Balasubramanian

IIMB Management Review

While corporate governance as a concept has received in creasing attention in recent years, there appears to be some lack of clarity, at least in popular perception, as to what exactly is covered under this expression. Similarly, there is also a great deal of righteous indignation, particularly on hindsight, when some thing apparently goes wrong with the corporate world and frequently efforts are made to pinpoint responsibility and, perhaps, even seek retribution. This self-correcting reaction is, in most cases, the societal esponse towards chastising the wrong-doers and restoring order and balance in normative compliance. Very much like the divine incarnations …

Corporate Governance: Improving Accounting Practices, S Sundararajan Dec 1996

Corporate Governance: Improving Accounting Practices, S Sundararajan

IIMB Management Review

Only a few fundamental ideas in the field of business management have stood the test of time and contributed to economic growth. The concept of a corporate form of organisation being akin to the democratic form of government is one such. The corporate structure is supported by management and corporate governance is all about ensuring that the management protects the interests of a number of stake holders. Providing reliable and relevant financial information about the corporate entity, thereby enabling different users to make sensible economic decisions, is one of the important tasks assigned to the management.
