    This document provides a summary of a lecture on defining corporate governance and key theoretical models. It begins by defining corporate governance as how suppliers of finance assure returns on their investments. It then discusses the principal-agent theory of corporate governance and the agency problems that can arise due to conflicts of interest between owners and managers. Specifically, it covers problems like perquisites, empire building, and conflicts between shareholders and debt holders. It also notes that in most companies, control is concentrated among a few large shareholders, which can allow them to potentially exploit minority shareholders. It closes by restating the adopted definition of corporate governance and the main theoretical model.

    Introduction
    One of the important rights that voting shares confer to their holders is the right to appoint the members
    of the board of directors. The board of directors is the ultimate governing body within the corporation.
    Its role, and in particular the role of the non-executive directors on the board, is to look after the
    interests of all the shareholders as well as sometimes those of other stakeholders such as the corporation’s
    employees or banks.

    Defining corporate governance


     Andrei Shleifer and Robert Vishny define corporate governance as:
    ‘the ways in which suppliers of finance to corporations assure themselves of getting a return on their
    investment.
     Marc Goergen and Luc Renneboog
    ‘[a] corporate governance system is the combination of mechanisms which ensure that the
    management (the agent) runs the firm for the benefit of one or several stakeholders (principals).
    Such stakeholders may cover shareholders, creditors, suppliers, clients, employees and other parties
    with whom the firm conducts its business.
     Company directors must act bona fide in accordance to what would most likely promote the success
    of the company for the benefit of the collective body of shareholders. In other words, while directors
    Page | 1
    are expected to take into account the interests of other stakeholders, they should only do so if this is
    in the long-term interest of the company, and ultimately its shareholders, i.e. its owners.

    Corporate governance theory


     The conflicts of interests that may exist between a so-called agent and the agent’s principal. These
    conflicts of interests were later formalised by Michael Jensen and William Meckling in their
    principal–agent theory or model which was introduced in their seminal 1976 paper.
     The agent may not act in the best interest of the principal once the contract between the two parties
    has been signed and may prefer to pursue his own interests. This type of danger is what economists
    normally refer to as moral hazard.
     A necessary condition for moral hazard to exist and for complete contracts to be an impossibility is
    the existence of asymmetric information.
     Returning to Jensen and Meckling’s principal–agent model, apart from the existence of asymmetric
    information the model also assumes that there is a separation of ownership and control in the
    corporation

    Agency problems
     The two main types of agency problems are perquisites and empire building.
     Perquisites or perks – also called fringe benefits – consist of on-the-job consumption by the firm’s
    managers. While the benefits from the perks accrue to the managers, their costs are borne by the
    shareholders.
     Empire building consists of the management pursuing growth rather than shareholder-value
    maximisation. While there is a link between the two, growth does not necessarily generate
    shareholder value and vice versa.

    The agency problems of debt and equity


     There exists a second type of agency problem. This agency problem relates to the other main source
    of financing which is debt.
     Remember that the debtholders’ claims are more senior than those of the shareholders. This implies
    that when the firm’s assets are insufficient to meet all the claims it is facing, it will first meet the
    claims of the debtholders.

    Corporate ownership and control are concentrated


     In most quoted corporations across the world control lies with one or few shareholders and not with
    the management as in the UK and the USA. These controlling shareholders are frequently other
    corporations, families or governments to just a few types of large shareholders.
     These corporations have two types of shareholders: the controlling shareholder(s) and the minority
    shareholders. As a result, the main corporate governance problem in most corporations across the
    world is not the classic agency problem between the managers and the shareholders, but the potential
    expropriation of the minority shareholders by the controlling shareholder

    Defining ownership and control
     Ownership is defined as ownership of cash flow rights. Cash flow rights give the holder a pro rata
    right to the firm’s assets (after the claims of all the other stakeholders have been met) if the firm is
    liquidated and a pro rata right to the firm’s earnings while it remains a going concern.
     Control is defined as the ownership of control rights.
     Control determines the level and the type of corporate governance problems that are likely prevail in
    a given company.
     In most countries of the world it is a requirement for major shareholders to disclose their ownership
    of the firm’s control rights, but no such requirement exists for cash flow rights.

    Closing Remark
     The definition this book adopts is that corporate governance deals with conflicts of interests between
    the providers of finance and the managers; the shareholders and the stakeholders; as well as between
    different types of shareholders (mainly the large shareholder and the minority shareholders); and the
    prevention or mitigation of these conflicts of interests.
     The main theoretical model of corporate governance is the principal–agent model.
     The main corporate governance issue that is likely to afflict these corporations is the expropriation of
    the minority shareholders by the large controlling shareholder.
     Corporate governance problems that may prevail under different combinations of ownership and
    control.
