Description:
The global economic meltdown clearly demonstrates the importance of corporate governance and ethics. Less evident are the steps to improving how
financial firms operate. A panel of UC Berkeley professors explore and
respond to questions such as: How should executives incorporate
potential global and long term impacts into their business decisions?
Can corporate governance structures and rules be improved to provide
meaningful oversight and socially favorable incentives to financial firm
leaders? Are the recent announcements of bonuses to financial
executives a sign of economic recovery or continued ethical lapses?
Panelists include Richard Buxbaum (Berkeley Law), Ernesto Dalbó (Haas School of Business), Christopher Kutz (Berkeley Law), David Vogel (Haas School of Business), and John Quigley (Dept. of Economics).
