Corporate Governance And Ethics

Authors : Sofiane Mostéfaoui .

Abstract

This paper explores the intricate relationship between corporate governance structures and ethical decision-making, with a special focus on the evolving role of stakeholder theory in guiding responsible business practices. Drawing from a rich body of literature, the study begins by analyzing the significance of board structure in promoting transparency, oversight, and accountability. A well-structured board typically includes a mix of executive and non-executive members, where independent directors play a vital role in reducing conflicts of interest and enhancing decision quality. The separation of the CEO and Chair roles, along with the creation of specialized committees, are identified as key practices for balanced governance. Accountability mechanisms such as regular reporting, external audits, and internal compliance systems are highlighted as essential tools for ensuring integrity and performance evaluation.
