Objective : Corporate Governance is the system by which organizations are directed and controlled. The corporate governance structure specifies the distribution of rights and responsibilities among different participants in the organization, such as, the board, managers, shareholders, and spells out the rules and procedures for making decisions on the company’s affairs. By doing this, it also provides the structure through which the company objectives and set, and the means of attaining those objectives and monitoring performance.
