Abstract

The economic and legal concepts of the code of corporate governance differ one from another regarding the code’s form, functions and obligatory content. We have conducted a research consisting of three hypotheses with the expected outcome to confirm corporate misunderstanding of legal provisions and the inadequacy of legal provisions for modern business practice.
