divergent interests of the sta-eholder of a bsiness enterprise especially after the
corporate scandals and loss of shareholder vale at 9nron and several other large
companies in the recent past, hich focsed more attention on the isse of
shareholder rights, calling for greater transparency and accontability and
enhancing corporate reporting and disclosre. The scandals led to nmeros
Corporate Governance reforms, inclding passage of the Sarbanes2 "1ley *ct
and the adoption of listing re6irements by the Ne or- Stoc- 91change in the

that concern shareholder and a range of other sta-eholder.
+E<INITION,
“Cororate governance is about romoting cororate fairness! transarency
and accountability”. 3t is concerned ith strctre and process for decision
ma-ing, accontability, control and behavior at the top level of organi?ations. 3tinflences ho the obectives of organi?ations are set and achieved, ho ris- is
monitored and assessed and ho performance is optimi?ed.
The term corporate overnance is not easy to define. The term governance relates
to a process of decision ma-ing and implementing the decisions in the interest of
all sta-eholders. 3t basically relates to enhancement of corporate performance and
ensres proper accontability for management in the interest of all sta-eholder .3tis a system thoght hich an organi?ation is gide and directed. "n the basis of
this definition, the core obectives corporate overnance are focs, predictability,
transparency, participate, accontability, efficiency 4 effectiveness and

Corporate overnance can also be defined “as the formal system of
accountability and control for ethical and socially resonsible organi"ational
decisions and use of resources.#

Corporate reptation is a companyKs most important asset. Companies recogni?ecorporate social responsibility 'CSR) to help bsiness become more accontable
and transparent to their sta-eholders and to the orld at large. The concept of
corporate social responsibility has gained prominence from all avenes.
"rgani?ations mst reali?e that government alone ill not be able to get sccess
in its endeavor to plift the dontrodden of society. The present societal
mar-eting concept of companies is constantly evolving and has given rise to a
ne concept2Corporate Social Responsibility. $any of the leading corporations
across the orld had reali?ed the importance of being associated ith sociallyrelevant cases as a means of promoting their brands. 3t stems from the desire to
do ell and get self2satisfaction in retrn as ell as societal obligation of
bsiness.
