The global financial crisis has led to more and more focus on
corporate governance and financial institutions. There has been
much coverage in the media about various corporate governance
related issues in banks and other financial institutions, such as
executive directors' remuneration and bankers' bonuses, board
composition and board diversity. This book, dedicated to the
corporate governance of banks and other financial institutions,
makes a timely and accessible contribution to the literature in
this area. The contributors are experts in their field with
in-depth knowledge of the various countries including Italy, the
UK, Germany, the US, China, Japan, Brazil, Russia, Australia and
Nigeria, plus a chapter on Islamic financial institutions, covered
in this book. Overall, the engagingly written chapters highlight
many of the shortcomings of corporate governance which have led to
financial scandals, whilst indicating areas where corporate
governance can be strengthened and improved. Adding depth and
accessibility to existing corporate governance books, this Handbook
is ideal as a teaching and learning tool for undergraduate and
postgraduate students. For directors and the general business and
wider stakeholder communities concerned with corporate governance,
it is an essential resource. Contributors: C.L. Ahmadjian, K.-J.
