This book addresses the concept of governance and explains the theoretical foundations underlying it. It is the result of extensive back-and-forth between theory and practice, between scientific debates and pragmatic questions. Although governance has very ancient origins, this issue has seen renewed interest following the increase in financial scandals and the proliferation of crises. Thus, in recent years, considerable attention has been focused on evaluating the necessary and decisive measures of governance quality. The aim is to pave the way for the establishment of good, sound governance and the restoration of confidence among all stakeholders. This book continues and deepens this approach, illustrating it with numerous examples from real-life situations, as well as certain cases of fraud committed by corporate executives that have led to the most widespread financial scandals around the world.
