Living Business in Hong Kong - Benefits of corporate governance
 
    A good corporate governance framework has the potential for these benefits:

  • Enhancing overall company performance.

  • Preparing a small enterprise for growth, and so helping to secure new business opportunities when they arise.

  • Increasing attractiveness to investors and lenders, which enables faster growth. (According to a global investor opinion survey in 2002, investors are ready to pay a premium of as much as 25% for companies exhibiting high governance standards in Asia.)

  • Increasing the company's ability to identify and mitigate risks, manage crises and respond to changing market trends.

  • Increasing market confidence as a whole. All companies suffer from corporate scandals, which scare potential investors away from the market.
