Dieses Buch bietet Einblicke in aktuelle Fragen der Corporate Governance, indem es zwölf Fälle aus den 2010er und 2020er Jahren untersucht, in denen die Corporate Governance als problematisch angesehen wurde. Die Fälle sollen den Leser mit Episoden aus dem "wirklichen Leben" vertraut machen, die Auswirkungen auf die Corporate Governance haben. Sie beleuchten, warum es immer wieder zu Unternehmensskandalen kommt, inwieweit diese auf ein Versagen der Corporate Governance zurückzuführen sind und auf welche Weise die Corporate Governance - und das Verhalten derjenigen, die für eine gute Governance und eine ethische Kultur in ihrem Unternehmen sorgen - in Zukunft verbessert werden kann. Dieses Buch ist für Unternehmer, Studenten der Wirtschaftswissenschaften und Juristen von Interesse und regt zur Diskussion über die Gründe an, warum die Corporate Governance versagt hat oder als unzureichend angesehen wurde.Die AutorinProfessor Jean Jinghan Chen kam 2018 als Lehrstuhlinhaberin für Rechnungswesen und Finanzen und Dekanin der Fakultät für Betriebswirtschaft an die Universität Macau.
