Programs : Task Forces
Corporate Governance
  Overview  
The goal of this task force is to provide policymakers with a portfolio of alternative tools that can be used to enhance corporate governance. The Corporate Governance task force seeks not only to articulate the broad themes, but also to look at specific issues as they apply to developing countries. Improving corporate governance in emerging market economies is widely recognized as necessary to boost private capital inflows and stimulate domestic investment. Everyone agrees that it is good. However, the literature on corporate governance has largely neglected issues of importance to developing and transition economies. Advice given to policymakers often focuses on long-term 'best practices' that are often difficult to implement.
