Corporate Governance: An International Review, 2004, vol. 12, issue 2, 172-176

Abstract: This paper reflects on the duties of the board of directors, in the light of transatlantic differences in practice, the instructive case history of Marconi, the interventions of Sarbanes‐Oxley, and the proposals of the Higgs Review of non‐executive directors. It is argued that ensuring a balance between good corporate governance and effective strategy is essential for sustained business results.
