A Primer on Corporate Governance

Italy

By: Andrea Melis,Alessandro Zattoni

This book provides an understanding of the characteristics of corporate governance in Italy, one of the most developed countries in the world, symbol of the family capitalism. The text presents the main peculiarities of the Italian corporate governance system, its impact on decision-making in corporate boardrooms, and the potential positive and negative consequences for the firm and its stakeholders. Several real-life case studies were included to help the reader grasp the subtleties of how power is exercised in Italian companies. The authors combine their knowledge of research with their professional experience. Such an approach helps the reader interpret the nuances of corporate governance practices in Italian companies as those practices are driven not only by the globalization of markets, but also by national economic, social, and political forces. The result is a unique corporate governance system, which deeply differs from the Anglo-American one. This book is, therefore, particularly relevant for a wide international audience (including investors, corporate directors, scholars, and practitioners) as it provides useful insights to interpret, evaluate and take sound decisions in Italian companies.

Corporate governance

By: Alessandro Zattoni

Il dibattito sulla corporate governance si è per lungo tempo concentrato sul fenomeno della separazione tra proprietà e controllo che caratterizza le grandi public company anglosassoni. Secondo questa «impostazione ristretta», il buon governo delle imprese si ottiene progettando un consiglio di amministrazione in grado di guidare il comportamento dei manager verso la massimizzazione del valore azionario. In questo lavoro si adotta una «impostazione allargata» secondo cui: la corporate governance assume rilevanza in tutti i tipi di imprese; il management deve considerare gli interessi che convergono nell’impresa; il consiglio di amministrazione e numerosi altri processi contribuiscono a incentivare un’efficiente creazione e un’equa distribuzione di valore tra i vari stakeholder. Seguendo questa impostazione, la prima parte introduce il tema della corporate governance, presentando le teorie e i modelli che permettono di comprenderlo e di analizzarlo con padronanza. La seconda parte descrive i principali sistemi capitalistici e analizza i principali meccanismi di corporate governance nelle imprese italiane e straniere di grandi dimensioni.

Corporate Governance in the Banking Sector

Theory, Supervision, ESG and Real Banking Failures

By: Bruno Buchetti,Alessandro Santoni

This book gives an overview of the most important theories on Corporate Governance, investigating the myth and the reality of it. It argues that within the banking sector exist two new agency costs (i.e., bank depositors and shareholders vs. directors and bank depositors vs. shareholders and directors). These agency problems are difficult to reduce for two reasons. First, banks are complex and opaque. Second, government implicit guarantees and the deposit insurance systems reduce the monitoring of depositors. This book also takes a deep dive into research on CG in the banking sector via a unique and innovative literature review covering the time period between 2000-2020. It finds that some specific CG characteristics affect banks: risk appetite, performance, accounting quality, compensation and corporate social responsibility disclosure. Furthermore, this publication contends that institutional investors are changing CG for the better, describing how major financial markets factors such as rating agencies and sell-side financial analysts make CG visible. Additionally, it investigates how managerial biases and irrational investors can affect CG negatively, leading to company distress. All-in-all, this book makes a threefold contribution: for regulators, it offers suggestions on how to improve banks’ supervision; for researchers, it suggests new research topics; and for practitioners, it connects CG theory with real cases of CG failure.

Corporate Governance and Initial Public Offerings

By: Alessandro Zattoni,William Q. Judge

Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) are unique economic and governance events as privately held firms issue common stock or shares to the public for the first time. The governance issues surrounding IPOs are relatively unexamined compared to more established, and usually larger, firms. As such, they provide a unique context to study corporate governance and its development around the world. Based on a collaborative international research project, this book analyses the corporate governance of IPOs in twenty-one countries, each of which is characterized by different governance environments and different levels of IPO activity. The end result is a broad and deep assessment of governance practices and IPO activity for an array of economies that represent roughly 80 percent of the global economy. These chapters collectively provide new insights into what a global theory of corporate governance might look like and offer guidance to policy makers and academics regarding national governance configurations.
