Corporate Governance

Corporate governance refers to the system of rules, practices, and processes by which a company is directed and controlled. It encompasses the relationships between various stakeholders, including shareholders, management, the board of directors, employees, customers, and the broader community. Effective corporate governance ensures accountability, fairness, and transparency in a company’s relationship with its stakeholders, in promotion of ethical behavior and long-term sustainability.
