"Bruce Aronson and Joongi Kim Corporate governance endures as an important and popular
field of study, but one which is also complicated by multiple definitions, an uncertain
relationship with economic growth and development, and the difficulties in formulating
a consistent approach that goes beyond current perceptions but is grounded in the
real world. This Book takes a comparative approach to corporate governance to analyse
the leading markets in Asia. It pays heed to the challenge of applying largely Western-based
general theory to a variety of dynamic jurisdictions in Asia that differ materially
from the countries from which such theory originated. At the same time, it seeks to
examine actual practice from local Asian contexts to provide a deeper understanding
of corporate governance issues from a comparative perspective. I. Basic Issues in
Corporate Governance 1. What is Corporate Governance? Two definitions: "...means of
decision-making and power allocation among shareholders, senior managers, and boards
of directors..." Mark Roe, 'Comparative Corporate Governance', in Paul Newman (ed.),
The New Palgrave Dictionary of Economics and the Law (London: MacMillan, 1998), vol.
1, p. 339. "[M]ore broadly defined, corporate governance can encompass the combination
of laws, regulations, listing rules and voluntary private sector practices that enable
the corporation to: attract capital, perform efficiently, achieve the corporate objective,
[and] meet both legal obligations and general societal expectations." Holly Gregory,
