Abstract

The issue of corporate governance and whether it affects the financial performance have for many rears been a center of curiosity for economic researchers. Researchers have been seeking to establish whether or not there is a direct relationship between these two forces in the corporate world. (Cadbury, 1992). Divergent views have been raised by researchers concerning this topic. (Becht. 2002)Most researchers, however, support that there is a positive correlation between the corporate governance and corporate financial institutions. (Gompers, 2003)In the United Kingdom, corporate governance has proven to greatly impact the corporate financial performances(Mallin, 2011).

[...] (Gompers, 2003)In the United Kingdom, corporate governance has proven to greatly impact the corporate financial performances(Mallin, 2011).
