Description

Are the global norms on corporate governance converging or diverging? In light of the challenges posed by globalisation, is the quest for global governance standards elusive? The presentation will deconstruct the existing theory of ‘convergence’ of corporate governance norms in light of recent regulatory reforms in India. The discussion will draw evidences from the book “Changing Paradigm of Corporate Governance in India” that Dr. Shikha has recently published with the Bloomsbury Publishers.
