The Case for Contingent Governance
1.12.2004
To cure weak corporate governance, new regulations and codes of best practices might be necessary, but they won't be sufficient. What is also required is the acknowledgment that governance has to continually adapt to changing conditions because a company, its management and business environment are forever evolving. As a result, corporate boards must adopt the right roles to reflect and shape those governance conditions.

Family Owned Business: The Magic Kingdom
1.9.2004
Family owned businesses (FOBs) are a major driving force in today's marketplace, accounting for virtually 80% of all businesses worldwide. In fact, approximately 35% of the Fortune 500 are composed of family enterprises. FOBs account for 75% of US and European businesses, 80% of Latin American companies and more than 80% of Asian firms.
A FOB is obviously a firm in which a family has a significant percentage of personal equity/estate invested in a business. These companies tend to prioritize family values in the management style and there is usually an extremely fine line between management and family.
