When a corporation is created, a Board of Directors must be appointed to represent and protect the interests of the shareholders of the company. To that end, the Board of Directors is responsible for managing matters of corporate governance.

Corporate governance refers to the rules and systems that are used and relied upon to achieve profitability and growth objectives. In other words, a business’s corporate governance determines how it is run.

The Board of Directors will routinely need to make decisions involving the hiring of new corporate officers, executive compensation, transparency concerns, risk management, crisis management, accountability issues, and dividend policies. Responsible and effective corporate governance generally instills confidence in the public and the investment community, often allowing companies to build strong reputations and meet their goals.
