INTRODUCTION
Corporate governance serves as the foundation for building and maintaining the trust
of stakeholders in any organization. It encompasses a set of principles, practices, and
processes that guide the way businesses are directed and controlled. In this article, we explore
the significance of corporate governance, its key components, and its role in promoting
transparency, accountability, and ethical standards within companies.
Board of Directors
The board of directors is a fundamental component of corporate governance. It is
responsible for overseeing the company's strategic direction, ensuring ethical practices, and
protecting the interests of shareholders. A well-functioning board comprises independent and
diverse directors who bring varied expertise and perspectives. They provide oversight, make
key decisions, and hold management accountable.

practices enable shareholders and investors to make informed decisions, while fostering trust
and credibility. Regular and comprehensive disclosure builds transparency, instilling
confidence in the organization.
Risk Management
Effective risk management is an essential aspect of corporate governance. It involves
identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks that may impact the organization's operations,
reputation, and financial stability (Mattingly et al., 2019). The board of directors plays a
critical role in overseeing risk management practices, setting risk appetite, and ensuring the
implementation of robust risk management frameworks.
