The word has Latin origins that suggest the notion of 'steering'. It deals with
the processes and systems by which an organization or society operates.

Current preoccupation with corporate governance can be pinpointed at three events:
1. The East Asian Financial Crisis of 1997 saw the economies of Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia and The Philippines severely affected by the exit of foreign capital. The lack of corporate governance mechanisms in these countries highlighted the weaknesses of the institutions in their economies
2. The US corporate crises of which saw the collapse of two big corporations: Enron and WorldCom, and the ensuing scandals and collapses in other organizations such as Arthur Andersen, Global Crossing and Tyco
3. In India several scams such as DSQ , and other financial scams forced the regulators to clamp regulations for the administration of public limited companies in order to protect the interests of the stakeholders

BackgroundThe Problem SOX was a reaction to corporate scandals and lack of
investor confidence:– Enron.
– Arthur Andersen.
– MCI.
Intense competition and pressure, conflicts of interest, and poor practices led to poor reporting and mismanagement.
Criminal activities also contributed to the problem. Many other smaller examples of “dot com” booms that
turned out to be investor busts all combined to prompt congressional action.
