N° 6. Corporate Governance in Latin America. Importance for State Owned Enterprises SOEs
Abstract
This paper highlights the importance of implementing Corporate Governance practices as a mechanism to improve the development of SOEs in Latin America. Corporate Governance practices strengthen the governing bodies that oversee and control (Shareholders or Owner Meetings, Board and Management, internal monitoring structures) while defining clear rules of engagement between the different actors as well as increase the transparency and accountability towards the stakeholders.
