Theorien der Corporate Governance am Beispiel der Dieselgate-Affäre

Baustein einer Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftstransformation

Gemeinwohl-Ökonomie (GWÖ)

“Mark has spent decades in the trenches of accounting and corporate governance. This book shares real, hard-won experience from large enterprises, working at scale, not on theory. He highlights a crucial need: keeping the finance function aligned with the actual shape of the business. Especially in the AI age, this is a rare, must-have guide for anyone reading (or preparing) management packs or sitting on a board.”
 — John Turner,
 CEO, XBRL International
 
 Financial reality is constructed, not discovered. What executives see in dashboards and board reports is not a neutral reflection of events, the outcome of a financial architecture that has evolved and accumulated over time.&nbsp;Consolidation logic, data models, validation rules, systems, escalation mechanisms, and reporting routines together form what the author calls the 'Translation Layer' that stands between raw economic activity and managerial visibility.
 
 The book develops a practical framework for understanding how financial architecture influences management information, capital allocation, risk visibility, governance, and decision making. Each chapter dissects a structural component of this architecture, demonstrating how design choices determine what becomes visible, comparable, and actionable at group level. It examines how reporting systems can produce technically correct numbers while obscuring strategic drift, weakening operational visibility, and masking emerging problems in cash flow, working capital, project performance, and organizational resilience. It also considers the implications of digital finance, ERP systems, XBRL, analytics, and AI for financial reporting and control.
 
 Bringing together financial management, corporate reporting, management control, and digital transformation, this book will be valuable to scholars and advanced practitioners in accounting, finance, governance, and business administration, as well as CFOs, controllers, board members, and executive education audiences seeking a deeper understanding of how financial representation shapes corporate judgment.

Corporate Governance Cultures, Regulation, and Practices

Owner Fraud in Banking Law

A wide-ranging introduction to the foundations and applications of organizational economics—essential for theorists and empiricists across a broad range of fields The rapidly expanding field of organizational economics studies the activities and interactions of organizations of all kinds, from the firms that are key participants in nearly all economic activity to nonprofits, schools, government agencies, hospitals, political parties, religious groups, labor unions, and more. Organizational Economics introduces students and practitioners to the governance mindset, an innovative, unified approach to understanding how organizations manage difficult transactions. It sheds light on the frictions that plague these difficult transactions as well as the wide variety of instruments that organizations use to manage these frictions. By analyzing foundational models and applying those models to some of the core problems that organizations must face, this comprehensive textbook demonstrates how governance works in the economy and identifies ways for managers, policymakers, and economists to help governance and the economy work better. <ul><li>Introduces foundational theories in organizational economics and applies those theories to model important issues that real organizations face</li><li>Takes seriously the conditions under which parties actively manage their interactions rather than governing them by an arms-length transaction, either by choice or necessity</li><li>Covers foundational theories of incentives, control, influence, and relationships</li><li>Applies these models to important topics in organizational economics, including personnel economics, authority, organizational structure, firm boundaries, and interfirm relationships</li><li>Includes problems uniquely designed to help readers engage with the large and growing research literature</li><li>Identifies future directions for research</li></ul>

Contemporary Studies in Corporate Law

Many attempts have been made to reduce the harms caused by business and to make companies become socially responsible. This book approaches the subject from a new perspective arguing that reflexive law offers the best means to align the interests of large companies with those of society and that recent developments in European company law fit a reflexive model. A reflexive company law, rather than trying to directly regulate companies, aims to affect internal decision-making processes to make companies responsive to outside interests and prevent them from operating as closed systems singularly focused on shareholder value. In this vein, the EU has recently imposed new obligations on companies to develop corporate sustainability reporting and due diligence processes as part of its objective to create a climate-neutral and sustainable economy. This book presents an argument for how the 'societal company' - a company that has an internal culture of transnational responsibility to do no harm but that retains the autonomy necessary to be economically productive - can be established through reflexive law. The book will appeal to researchers, policy makers and lawyers interested in corporate sustainability, regulatory theory, company law and EU law.

Sustainability, Shareholder Value, and European Company Law

The Societal Company

... by any standard, a remarkable magnum opus ... No serious lawyer, accountant or corporate entrepreneur can do without this work. The 2014 Act and this volume, taken together, are the corner-stone and keystone respectively of the bridge to understanding the corporate law of this State. Michael McDowell, The Sunday Business Post The most comprehensive commentary on Irish company law and the recognised authority in this jurisdiction, Law of Companies is an unparalleled statement of the law applicable to the formation, administration and management of companies. This new edition: - reviews the amending legislation enacted since 2015; - completely reviews the law relating to one of the most fundamental principles of company law, lifting the veil, - expands and improves the chapters on the law on corporate criminal liability and the criminal liability of directors, - redevelops the chapter on directors' fiduciary and other duties by reference to both Irish and UK developments, - provides coverage of the significant changes to company general meetings introduced following Covid, - analyses the new rescue process for small and micro companies that was introduced in 2021, and &gt; Fully updated to take account of the hundreds of judgments from the Irish and UK courts delivered since the previous edition, as well as the new statutory provisions, the fifth edition of The Law of Companies is a 'must have' for all practitioners and students of Irish company law. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Irish Company and Commercial Law online service.

This edited collection provides a comprehensive analysis of the conceptual foundations and legal and economic implications of EU Corporate Sustainability Law. Bringing together contributions from leading academics, jurists, and practitioners, it offers a rigorous and interdisciplinary perspective on this rapidly evolving regulatory field. With a focus on corporate actors, the volume examines how firms navigate emerging sustainability obligations while contributing to wider debates on the transformative role of EU regulation in global markets.The book is structured in three parts. The first analyses core due diligence instruments requiring firms to identify, prevent, and manage sustainability risks. The second examines transparency and disclosure frameworks, including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and financial sector initiatives. The final part explores the extraterritorial reach of EU sustainability law, assessing its impact on global supply chains and third-country actors, including China and Latin America. Addressing the ‘Brussels Effect’ and key regulatory developments, this volume will be essential for scholars in law and economics, political economy, and financial regulation, as well as policymakers and practitioners.Gonzalo Larrea

Critical Perspectives on a Novel Body of Law

EU Corporate Sustainability Law

Kickbacks and payoffs, greasing someone's palm and paying them under the table: We have a rich vocabulary for bribery. The French refer to bribes as "wine jugs"; in South Asia, a corrupt transaction might be passed off as "money for tea and refreshments." Why is bribery so universal, and in what ways does it typically occur? How has it persisted despite countless pledges that authorities are tackling the problem? This book offers an eye-opening exploration of bribery in practice, taking us inside the sordid world of grubby transactions and tainted institutions. Drawing on an extensive career of skirmishing with fraud, David J. O'Regan examines the all-too-human reasons that people offer and accept bribes. Gripping case studies allow readers to peer into the backrooms where bribery takes place, peek behind the closed doors that conceal corruption from the public, and join auditors as they uncover underhand transactions. O'Regan contends that bribery is particularly socially damaging because of its uncanny relationship to gift exchange. It undermines collective solidarity, misallocates economic resources, and diminishes social trust. He also argues that many anticorruption efforts provide merely the trappings of compliance--a thin veneer of empty assurance that something is being done. Shining a light into the shadows where corruption thrives, Bribery Humanized proposes realistic steps to curb an ineradicable scourge.

A Guide to Understanding and Countering Corruption

Bribery Humanized

A blueprint for an economy that delivers true shared prosperity and inclusive growth. How can we address economic inequality? Most proposed solutions ask the rich to pay higher taxes to benefit the poor. But the rich have the political power to control whether redistribution happens and are unlikely to tolerate such arrangements. Therefore, Francesco Caselli argues, what's needed is a system that generates wealth equitably at the source: an economy that retains free markets but replaces traditional corporations with worker-managed cooperatives, where every employee has an equal say in company governance. Cooperatives in the Twenty-First Century shows that properly designed worker co-ops can match the productivity of conventional firms while sharing the resulting prosperity more evenly. Hardly a radical, Caselli mobilizes decades of orthodox economics research to distill the principles required for cooperatives to succeed: He explains how to implement worker democracy, structure management, address worker discipline, and protect the rights of those who leave the co-op, among other matters. If a co-op follows these principles, it will be "incentive-compatible"-that is, each member will work hard because it will be in their interest to do so. Crucially, this co-op system does not assume worker altruism. A well-designed cooperative will succeed even if every worker is a purely selfish homo economicus. Effective worker co-ops are not the stuff of utopian fantasy: Spain's Mondragon federation, for example, has been around for seventy years and employs over 70,000 workers. But co-ops are still rarer than they should be. Caselli's meticulous, accessible recommendations offer a vision of a more equitable economic future and detail how we can get from here to there.
