They have to explain to the market as to the kind of signal that is being sent by the resignation of the independent director.” Minority shareholders in Singapore are also increasingly ...

Corporate Governance: Turkish Companies Need to Face the Music
2007-04-29 13:08:00 One of the motivating forces behind Grandstanding Traction was my friend Erkan from Knowledge Revisited (http://governanceturkey.blogsp-ot.com), a blog about corporate governance issues in Turkey. Erkan has a passion and deep knowledge of governance issues, and therefore a lack therof in Turkey. When it comes to evangelizing the reasons why companies should be doing the upmost to use fair and ethical practices in business, he is very motivated.

When investors start seeing m...

2007-03-25 19:54:00 The Jay and the Peacock A Jay venturing into a yard where Peacocks used to walk, found there a number of feathers which had fallen from the Peacocks when they were moulting. He tied them all to his tail and strutted down towards the Peacocks. When he came near them they soon discovered the cheat, and striding up to him pecked at him and plucked away his borrowed plumes.
