CFO.com has a great article on the varying global interpretations of “corporate governance”: Governance: It’s a Regional Thing. Here’s an interesting clip:

“…34 percent of U.S. institutional investors say ‘enhanced returns’ are the most significant advantage of good corporate governance, about on par with the global average of 37 percent. In China, however, only 7 percent of institutional investors agree; in Japan, the figure is a whopping 80 percent.”
