 Barriers to Ethical Corporate Governance

 Lack of Knowledge:
One of the most important barriers to effective governance is this. People
are unaware of the process of governance and development initiatives due
to a lack of literacy, a lack of information from the government, and the
failure of civil society institutions. People's indifference adds to the
problem.
 Lack of accountability and transparency:
The lack of transparency causes governance to divert. In addition, a lack of
accountability leads to individualism and creates an important gap between
government and the ruling.
 Bribery and the failure to combat it:
Bribery is defined as private benefit obtained via unethical use of public
resources. This phenomenon deprives people of the benefits of
development.
 Civilized society is in poor shape:
Civilized society acts as a link between the government and the people it
governs, preventing immoral behaviour from spreading. However, when
civil society institutions are absent or weakened, the gap between citizens
and the government widens. Weak civilized society institutions have a
negative impact on good governance.
 A lack of efficient governing institutions:
With a clear separation of powers, governance functions with the backing
of diverse institutions such as the parliament, executive branch, and
judiciary. These institutions will be undermined if they yield to illegal and
unethical pressures and fail to carry out their mandated functions. As a
result, the governing process fails, and development activities are delayed.
