| 總結: | Since the Asian economic crisis, most Asian countries
have carried out reform of their law and regulatory
frameworks to address their shortcomings and to prevent
a repeat of the economic crisis that some attributed to
corporate governance failure. Malaysia, Singapore and
Hong Kong have recently revised their applicable corporate governance codes or principles.This discussion provides a comparative study of the differences and similarities in these Codes in relation to: (1) the role of the independent non-executive directors; (2) the independence criteria; and (3) disclosure and verification of the independence criteria. This can be used to provide benchmarking of the applicable rules to counter perceptions of a weak institutional framework on corporate governance. |
