Abstract

State Owned Companies (SOCs) should in general operate according to the same rules as privately owned companies. However, the fact that the state is the shareholder enables government officials to influence both management and supervisory boards. The aim of the research is to identify the influence of government officials on SOCs’ management and supervisory boards and the determinants of government officials decisions’ concerning SOCs, in particular the problems that refer to the operation of Polish Ministry of Treasury. The main question here is if the influence of government officials is constructive or destructive for the companies as the entities that undertake commercial activity and that should achieve their business aims. The research carried out by the author is interdisciplinary and consists of regulation analysis and large sample analysis conducted among SOCs’ management and supervisory boards’ members and officials of Polish Ministry of Treasury that supervise SOCs.
