A sample of 40 companies was collected, with data sourced over five years, from 2016 to 2020 included. Five corporate governance factors were chosen due to their relevance in existing corporate governance regimes, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley act of 2002 in the US, the Guidelines of the Australian Stock Exchange’s Corporate Governance Council that appeared in 2003 and the Combined Code of Corporate Governance in the UK. These variables have also been selected by other researchers, which we will discover later in our literature review. We control for enterprise-specific characteristics such as size, leverage, and price to book value of assets. Firm performance is examined through the collection of ROA, ROE and EBTIDA variables, expressed in percentages. These financial performance indicators were selected as they are the principal determinant of a company's financial performance. We will focus on which corporate governance measures present themselves as a determinant of performance and thus directly affect profitability Programme : MSc Corporate Finance Permalink : https://cataloguelibrary.neoma-bs.fr/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=568528
