Evaluation of Corporate Governance practices at the Namibian Government Institutions Pension Fund (GIPF) by Joseph Ilonga Pdf
Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, , language: English, abstract: This evaluation of Corporate Governance practices at the Namibian Government Institutions Pension Fund (GIPF) is a qualitative single case study. The study utilized both primary and secondary data to answer the question whether GIPF was in compliance with the criteria relating to audit the committee, governance of risk as well internal audit functions as guided by the Namibia Code for Corporate Governance (NamCode). The study concluded that overall, the Government Institutions Pension Fund is indeed complying with the majority of the aspects assessed regarding requirements for audit The committee, governance of risks as well as internal audit functions. It appears that in some cases, the company complies with certain criteria how it is being documented may not be exactly how it is guided by the governance framework as stipulated in the NamCode. In most cases, where the study finds the company to be partially in compliance as opposed to full compliance, it is a question of the style used by the company in documenting how they are applying their corporate governance framework. Considering that only three out of nine principles of corporate were assessed; it is important to document that the survey only provide a snapshot of GIPF compliance to the governance framework and conclusions of this study cannot be taken as a complete view in any way. The study recommends that the company conform to the style of documenting their application of corporate governance principles to that of the governance framework provided for in NamCode. The adjustment is very important as it will help in ensuring consistency and standards especially when studies of this nature are to be conducted again. Finally, the study recommends that assessment of all nine principles of corporate governance be conducted preferably on an annual basis if GIPF is to keep in touch with the reality in as far as how they are doing regarding compliance.

A Manual on the Public Enterprises Governance Act in Namibia by Ntelamo Ntelamo Pdf
Every ordinary citizen wants to see public enterprises succeed. Good governance requires upright and uncompromising leadership. To drive change in public enterprises, the best approaches should be tolerated to take root. Functionaries in public enterprises should not extend their powers beyond what the law approves of. It is astounding that persons whose duty it is to steer the success of institutions are themselves the ones who run them into the ground. This book engages with the text of Namibia's Public Enterprises Governance Act 1 of 2019 (PEGA). The objective of the PEGA is to provide for the efficient governance of public enterprises and the monitoring of their performance. A Manual on the Public Enterprises Governance Act in Namibia helpfully considers the policy context that led up to the PEGA and sheds light on the Act in a way that is easy to follow. The PEGA was preceded by a policy paper by the Ministry of Public Enterprises that expressed the perceived shortcomings of prior legislation governing public enterprises in Namibia. A proper governance model and accountability were identified as lacking. It was hoped that the PEGA would transform the governance of the country's public enterprises. However, the liquidation of Air Namibia in the era of the PEGA is testimony that the law has serious deficiencies, which this book helps to point out. A Manual on the Public Enterprises Governance Act in Namibia argues that the PEGA is inadequate to address governance challenges and recommends necessary reforms. The book will benefit lawyers, academics, students and researchers interested in the governance of public enterprises. It also will be useful to shareholders and boards of directors in public enterprises in Namibia and beyond. -- Back cover.

Comparative Corporate Governance by Andreas M. Fleckner,Klaus J. Hopt Pdf
The business corporation is one of the greatest organizational inventions, but it creates risks both for shareholders and for third parties. To mitigate these risks, legislators, judges, and corporate lawyers have tried to learn from foreign experiences and adapt their regulatory regimes to them. In the last three decades, this approach has led to a stream of corporate and capital market law reforms unseen before. Corporate governance, the system by which companies are directed and controlled, is today a key topic for legislation, practice, and academia all over the world. Corporate scandals and financial crises have repeatedly highlighted the need to better understand the economic, social, political, and legal determinants of corporate governance in individual countries. Comparative Corporate Governance furthers this goal by bringing together current scholarship in law and economics with the expertise of local corporate governance specialists from twenty-three countries.

Finally it is recommended that further research must be conducted in the rest of OMAs in order to validate findings of this study.
