    6 The agency view o! the corporation posits that the decision rights ?control@ o! the

    corporation are entrusted to the manager to act in shareholders interests. 8ontrolsystems in corporate governance can help align managers incentives with those

    o! shareholders and other stakeholders.

    6 The principalagent problem concerns the di!!iculties in motivating one party ?the

    CagentC@, to act on behal! o! another ?the CprincipalC@. The two parties have

    di!!erent interests and asymmetric in!ormation. 3oral ha&ard and con!lict o!

    interest may thus arise.

    6 The deviation !rom the principals interest by the agent is called Cagency costs. C

     Agency costs mainly arise due to contracting costs and the divergence o! control,separation o! ownership and control, and the di!!erent ob)ectives ?rather than

    shareholder ma#imi&ation@ o! the managers.

    6 3uch recent interest in corporate governance is concerned with mitigation o! the

    con!licts o! interests between stakeholders. These occur when an individual or

    organi&ation is involved in multiple interests that may lead to con!licts in their

    ability to act in the best interest o! one party.

    6 Three parties key to the !unctioning o! the corporation are the managers,

    shareholders, and bondholders. %hile managers control the corporation andmake strategic decisions, shareholders are owners, and bondholders are

    creditors.

    6 %hile all three parties have an interest, whether direct or indirect, in the !inancial

    per!ormance o! the corporation, each o! the three parties has di!!erent rights and

    rewards, !or e#ample voting rights and !orms o! !inancial return.

    6 Shareholders, managers, and bondholders have di!!erent ob)ectives. For

    e#ample, shareholders have an incentive to take riskier pro)ects than

    bondholders do and may pre!er that the company pay more out in dividends.3anagers may also be shareholders or pre!er risk+averse, empire+building

    6 The agency view o! the corporation suggests that the decision rights o! the

    corporation should be entrusted to a manager to act in shareholders interests. Agency costs mainly occur when ownership is separated, or when managers

    have ob)ectives other than shareholder value ma#imi&ation.

    6 Typically, the 8H4 and other top e#ecutives are responsible !or making decisions

    about high+level policy and strategy. Shareholders, on the other hand, are

    individuals or institutions that legally own shares o! corporation stock.

    Shareholders typically concede control rights to managers.

    6 There are various con!licts o! interest that can impact managers decisions to act

    in shareholders interests. 3anagement may, !or e#ample, buy other companiesto e#pand power. enturing onto !raud, they may even manipulate !inancial

    !igures to optimi&e bonuses and stock+price+related options.

    6 8ontemporary discussions o! corporate governance argue that corporations

    should respect the rights o! shareholders and help shareholders to e#ercise those

    rights. 7isclosure and transparency are intimately intertwined with these goals.
