<br/><br/> Thomas Clarke's International Corporate Governance offers a comprehensive guide to corporate governance forms and institutions and examines the recurring crises in corporate governance and the resulting corporate governance reform around the world. ;  ; While the popular structure of the original text has been retained, significant changes have been made to take account of the global financial crisis, ever-changing regulations and worldwide governance developments. Key topics include: ;  ;     The governance failures of international corporations such as Enron and Lehman Brothers ;     Diversity in corporate and institutional forms across the world ;     The role of international corporate governance standards ;     Digital disruption in capital markets and proposals for rebuilding commitment to long-term investing ;     The impact of financialization and corporate governance practices on increasing inequality ;     The links between corporate governance, corporate social responsibility and sustainability ;  ; This textbook contains a wealth of pedagogical material to guide the reader through this complex subject, including student questions to help with assessments, and a new companion website. There are also thirteen forensic case studies which scrutinize the governance failures seen at RBS, UBS, BP, Volkswagen and many other international corporations. ;  ; International Corporate Governance will be an essential text for anybody studying corporate governance at the advanced undergraduate, master's or executive level.
