In this collection of classic and current articles from the Journal of Applied Corporate Finance, thought leaders such as Michael Jensen and Robert Monks discuss the corporate mission of value maximization and the accomplishments and limitations of the U.S. governance system in achieving that end. Essays address the elements driving corporate value: the board of directors, compensation for CEOs and other employees, incentives and organizational structure, external ownership and control, role of markets, and financial reporting. They evaluate best practice methods, challenges in designing equity plans, transferable stock options, the controversy over executive compensation, the values of decentralization, identifying and attracting the "right" investors, the evolution of shareholder activism, creating value through mergers and acquisitions, and the benefits of just saying no to Wall Street's "earnings game." Grounded in solid research and practice, U.S. Corporate Governance is a crucial companion for navigating the world of modern finance. 606 $aCorporate governance$zUnited States 615 0$aCorporate governance 676 $a338.60973 702 $aChew$b Donald H. 702 $aGillan$b Stuart L. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788214903321 996 $aU.S. corporate governance$93759600 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05667nam 22007815 450 001 9911046530903321 005 20250806180529.0 010 $a9789819502158$b(electronic bk.) 010 $z9789819502141 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-95-0215-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32254377 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32254377 035 $a(CKB)40123501000041 035 $a(OCoLC)1531326964 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-95-0215-8 035 $a(EXLCZ)9940123501000041 100 $a20250806d2026 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aComputing and Combinatorics $e31st International Computing and Combinatorics Conference, COCOON 2025, Chengdu, China, August 15?17, 2025, Proceedings, Part I /$fedited by Fedor V.
