The governance issues surrounding IPOs are relatively unexamined compared to more established, and usually larger, firms. As such, they provide a unique context to study corporate governance and its development around the world. Based on a collaborative international research project, this book analyses the corporate governance of IPOs in twenty-one countries, each of which is characterized by different governance environments and different levels of IPO activity. The end result is a broad and deep assessment of governance practices and IPO activity for an array of economies that represent roughly 80 percent of the global economy. These chapters collectively provide new insights into what a global theory of corporate governance might look like and offer guidance to policy makers and academics regarding national governance configurations. 517 3 $aCorporate Governance & Initial Public Offerings 606 $aCorporate governance 606 $aGoing public (Securities) 606 $aCorporations$xInvestor relations 615 0$aCorporate governance. 615 0$aGoing public (Securities) 615 0$aCorporations$xInvestor relations. 676 $a658.15/224 686 $aBUS041000$2bisacsh 702 $aZattoni$b Alessandro 702 $aJudge$b William Q. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819304403321 996 $aCorporate governance and initial public offerings$94065595 997 $aUNINA
