Impact of the role of independent directors on company success and failure: SUCCESS:
1. Company with higher portion of independent directors are less likely to encounter financial distress as independent directors enjoy on monitoring and controlling their power over management (Wang and Deng, 2007)
2. Independent directors earnings are based on equity and their incentives are closely aligned with those of shareholders. So, independent directors are said to also protect shareholders rights( Harley and Wiggin, 2003) FAILURE:
1. Independent directors interests are artificial compared to executive/management people who are more aware of the companies performance and have more experience.
2. Lack relevant experience and hence tend to be more conservative.
3. Thought to be unaffected by self-interest and, with that interest in company performance is disconnected. Please kindly include above points in assignment. Minimum of three references are required. Business Law Assignment: I need help writing a research paper.
