Abstract

Corporate governance is a relatively young and rapidly growing sub-field within the fields of economics and finance. It refers to the various aspects of governance of a modern corporation. Large variety of business organizational forms, complexity of their governance structures, conflicts of interests arising within these structures make it important to study the process of governance of a modern corporation as a separate phenomenon. Aim of the course is to familiarize students with the theory and practice of the modern corporate governance. During the course we will discuss the results of the latest and most important research in the area of the corporate governance. Students will learn about the current practices and recent reforms of corporate governance in Russia and around the world. Also students will see how the modern econometric methods are applied in empirical studies on corporate governance.
