Throughout, the authors argue that the two most important features of corporate governance are transparency and accountability and offer a detailed analysis of the relevant law and practice. Key features: examination of the position of all stakeholders in an insolvent company, both before and during an insolvency regime; specialist explanation of what corporate governance entails and the recent developments that have occurred in relation to corporate governance as it affects insolvent companies; in-depth consideration of the role of creditors, shareholders, the Insolvency Service, special managers and creditors' committees during periods of insolvency as well as the role and functions of directors and insolvency practitioners who are the main focus." -- 650 0 $a Bankruptcy $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Corporate governance $x Law and legislation $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Bankruptcy. 650 0 $a Corporate governance $x Law and legislation. 700 1 $a Walton, Peter, $d 1965- $e author. 700 1 $a Curl, Joseph, $e author. 830 0 $a Elgar corporate and insolvency law and practice series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019024504.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=168E27F8BFA611ECA5AD8FDE3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
