Investor Protection and Corporate Governance analyzes the impact of corporate governance
on firm performance and valuation. Using unique datasets gathered at the firm-level
- the first such data in the region - and results from a homogeneous corporate governance
questionnaire, the book examines corporate governance characteristics, ownership
structures, dividend policies, and performance measures. The book's analysis reveals
the very high levels of ownership and voting rights concentrations and monolithic
governance structures in the largest samples of Latin American companies up to now,
and new data emphasize the importance of specific characteristics of the investor
protection regimes in several Latin American countries. By and large, those firms
with better governance measures across several dimensions are granted higher valuations
and thus lower cost of capital.
This title will be useful to researchers, policy makers, government officials, and
other professionals involved in corporate governance, economic policy, and business
finance, law, and management.
