The need for governance after the collapse of the economic and financial crisis experienced by Southeast Asia and Japan region in 1997 that called for controls to adjust the governance of all stakeholders in the companies. The increased importance because of the shift of many countries of the world to the capitalist economic systems.
The expansion projects implemented size led to ownership separation from the Directors and became a search for new sources of financing through borrowing from financial markets and coincided with the liberalization of financial markets moved money intercontinental warheads, and has expanded the size of corporate ownership and separation from the administration, led all of that to weak oversight mechanisms causing the exposure of companies to financial crises.
In the United States led the company scandal (Enron) , which emerged as a result of being too lenient with the external auditors , the Board of Directors and the lack of financial reports issued by the Directors accuracy, causing it to collapse. Prompting the US regulatory authorities to set rules (Serban - Oxley) in 2002 to adjust the work of public shareholding companies.
As well as the world is experiencing a deepening financial crisis, caused by the irrational policies that led to the loss and the loss of the rights of their owners, as well as investors ' loss of confidence in the economic and political structure of countries. Valley weak management and lack of oversight to the spread of financial and administrative corruption and accounting.
The logic of the market, highlights the following questions: What is the procedure that assures the investor or shareholder that the company which has invested his savings working for the high objectives, what ensures him that the financial reports issued by the company show the real financial situation of the company? What guarantees the lenders to the company that it will recover its loans? What guarantees the investor get a return on its investment in the company? But what guarantee him preserve his capital investor? What ensures the employee working in the company that this company will continue to produce value - added and how all stakeholders will get their rights?
The answer to all these questions is governance?
