Abstract
The course on corporate governance provides a comprehensive overview of key concepts and practices in the field. Students will delve into the fundamentals, beginning with an introduction to governance and the agency problem. The course then explores the role of the Board in risk management and corporate performance, compares governance models across different countries, highlighting their similarities and differences. Special attention is given to the peculiarities of Russian corporate governance. Moreover, the course examines the historical development of corporate governance crises, tracing them from the Great Depression to the challenges faced in the 2020s. Students will also explore the stakeholder theory of corporate governance and learn about the modern requirements for effective governance. The course concludes with an analysis of corporate governance through the lens of corporate reporting, emphasizing the importance of transparency and accountability. Each lecture contains theoretical descriptions as well as practical cases that are analysed together with the students. The course tasks deepen the work with the cases allowing students to gain a holistic perspective on corporate governance practices across different countries. By the end of this course, students will have a solid understanding of corporate governance principles and their practical application in today's business landscape.
The level of the course suggests that the student has the basic knowledge of economics (microeconomics and macroeconomics), enterprise (management/ corporate law or alike) and statistics before joining the course. Absence of this knowledge is not a limiting point, but will increase the number of hours for learning the course.
