Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strong corporate governance framework is essential for MENA economies as they strive to boost economic growth, strengthen competitiveness and build prosperous societies. The G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance and the OECD Guidelines on Corporate Governance of State-Owned Enterprises are a reference in order to build such a framework. This report assesses the corporate governance landscape in the MENA region by identifying challenges and proposing policy options for reform. The findings of the report are based on an analysis of policies and practices in four thematic areas: boosting access to finance and capital markets, improving transparency and disclosure, achieving gender balance in corporate leadership and enhancing the governance of state-owned enterprises in MENA. Overall, the report finds that MENA economies have made progress in strengthening corporate governance frameworks in recent years, but that the region still faces challenges in adopting and implementing corporate governance measures that support economic efficiency, sustainable growth and financial stability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part I of this report discusses the short- and medium-term growth prospects for countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The region is expected to grow at a subdued rate of 0.6 percent in 2019, rising to 2.6 percent in 2020 and 2.9 percent in 2021. The growth forecast for 2019 is revised down by 0.8 percentage points from the April 2019 projection. MENA’s economic outlook is subject to substantial downside risks—most notably, intensified global economic headwinds and rising geopolitical tensions. Part II argues that promoting fair competition is key for MENA countries to complete the transition from an administered to a market economy. Part II first examines current competition policies in MENA countries and to promote fair competition calls for strengthening competition law and enforcement agencies. It also calls for corporatizing state-owned enterprises, promoting the private sector and creating a level-playing field between them. Any moves to reform MENA economies would be aided by professional management of public assets, which could tap into a new source of national wealth.

Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: Sehr Gut, University of Vienna, language: English, abstract: English: In today ́s business world corporate governance has become one of the most discussed and most important matters. Corporate governance criteria have been put right in the middle of investment decisions - especially in emerging markets. In addition to that, a series of events like business scandals, financial crises or business failures in the last 20 years has made corporate governance a key point in the business community in emerging markets, developing countries and economies in transition. There exists no general definition for the term corporate governance. Basically it can be viewed as a set of principles and rules by which a company is directed and controlled. Many countries have developed good corporate governance principles to improve the relationship between the shareholders of a company and the management. Factors like financial disclosure, more rights for shareholders and independent boards are crucial for investors who are looking for a stable growth of companies. Countries in the MENA region have put the implementation of such sound corporate governance codes in the middle of their agenda. Their aim is to create better economies and consequently a more attractive investment climate for possible investors in the future. This thesis tries to give the reader an insight into today ́s state of corporate governance in the Middle East and North Africa countries. The discussion is based on a survey which has been undertaken by the Hawkamah Institute for corporate governance in Dubai which focuses on the establishment of good corporate governance codes in this region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the complex relationship between corporate governance and economic development by focusing on the reform of corporate governance, the role of the legal system, and the interconnections with the financial system. Corporate governance has a central role to play in helping to increase the flow and lower the cost of the financial capital that firms need to finance their investment activity. The importance of this role has grown considerably in recent years, and the findings of this book emphasize that the standard of corporate governance matters significantly for developing countries. The editors rediscover that improved corporate governance can contribute to sustained productivity growth and stability of institutions. This timely and insightful book offers a one-stop reference guide for practitioners, academics, researchers, donor agencies and those who are interested in understanding the multi-dimensional and interdisciplinary aspects of corporate governance.
