Abstract

In India the debate on corporate governance practices is sporadic and shrouded in ambivalence. Public policy on various aspects of the functioning of the corporate sector is evolving in terms of legal and regulatory support in the more recent past. The post-Cadbury debate the world over focuses on the central dimensions of corporate governance such as accountability and transparency. In countries like USA, special legislation has been introduced to promote a greater measure of transparency and accountability. Several countries have also adopted country codes and best practices. India needs to learn a great deal from the experiences of UK, USA, Canada and Europe in evolving an appropriate framework for enforcing higher standards of corporate governance.
