Part of the book series: CSR, Sustainability, Ethics & Governance ((CSEG))

Abstract

The formulation of corporate governance standards in People’s Credit Banks (PCBs) has taken a long time. In its development, after the 1997 Indonesian financial crisis, from 1998 to 2014, a number of acts and regulations that directly or indirectly govern corporate governance standards in PCBs were promulgated by Indonesian authorities. Nevertheless, the standards in PCBs are still poor. Just recently, in March and December 2015, the Indonesian Financial Services Authority (IFSA) issued two more main regulations concerning corporate governance standards in PCBs. As a result, the standards have become more complex and need to be further studied.

The paper is presented at the 3rd International Conference on CSR, Sustainability, Ethics & Governance Sustainable Management as a New Business Paradigm, held by Cologne Business School and Global Corporate Governance Institute in collaboration with Loyola University New Orleans, Murdoch University, London Metropolitan University and Nanjing University of Finance and Economics, Cologne Germany, 1–3 August 2016.

The author is a PhD Student at School of Law/Faculty of Law, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. The author teaches at Faculty of Law, Satya Wacana Christian University, Salatiga, Central Java, Indonesia.

    The crises are marked by the closure of 16 banks in November 1997 by Bank Indonesia. The closures of banks continued in April 1998, and seven banks were closed. Still in April 1998 another seven banks were taken over by the Government but due to the poor financial performance,; three of them were liquidated. In September 1988 the Indonesian Government merged four state-owned banks into a new bank named Bank Mandiri. Meanwhile, at same year, another 128 private national banks were required to take part in a programme called bank restructuring conducted by the Indonesian Banks Restructuring Agency (IBRA). The result of the programme was 74 banks were permitted to continue their operation without recapitalization, 9 banks were agreed to continue their operation with recapitalization, 7 banks were taken over by IBRA, and 38 banks were liquidated (Kameyama et al. 2005).

    Other systemic problems are corruption and weaknesses of state-manage capitalism. See Radelet and Sachs (2000) and Claessens and Fan (2002). Meanwhile, Sadguna (2005) documents poor quality management, imbalance ownership structure, lack of effective control measures and consistency in law enforcement processes. Other disadvantages as pointed out by Clarke and Rama (2009) are the small amount of families who control national corporate asset.

    The 2016 UK CGC is the latest version of the corporate governance code in the UK which is based mainly on the standards that have been constructed by several committees and task forces for corporate governance in the UK. The formulation of corporate governance standards in the UK started when a committee chaired by Sir Adrian Cadbury (the Cadbury Committee) was established in 1992. The Cadbury Committee later issued a report, known as the Cadbury Report 1992. See The Cadbury Committee (1992) Report on the committee on the financial aspect of corporate governance, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/cadbury.pdf. Accessed 10 October 2015. The Cadbury Report was later followed up by the Rutteman Committee in 1994 specifically on the issue of internal control and revised by the Hampel Committee in 1998 with respect to the Cadbury Committee’s recommendations on corporate governance. Based on the Cadbury Report, the Greenbury Report, and the Hampel Report, the UK Combined Code was first issued in 1998 (The 1998 UK Combined Code). See The Greenbury Committee (1995). Directors’ remuneration: report of a study group, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/greenbury.pdf. Accessed 12 April 2015. See also The Hampel Committee (1998). Committee on corporate governance, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/hampel.pdf. Accessed 9 April 2015. In 1999, a committee chaired by Paul Turnbull (Turnbull Committee) was established to work on the internal control issue. The Turnbull Committee published a report (1999). See The Turnbull Committee (1999). Internal control: guidance for directors on the combined code, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/turnbul.pdf. Accessed 12 April 2015.

Internal control revised guidance for directors on the combined code, https://www.frc.org.uk/getattachment/5e4d12e4-a94f-4186-9d6f-19e17aeb5351/Turnbull-guidance-October-2005.aspx. Accessed 19 April 2015. The 1998 Combined Code, with regard to the role and the effectiveness of non-executive director, later revised by the Higgs Committee 2002. The Higgs Committee produced a report in January 2003. See The Higgs Committee (2003). Review of the role and effectiveness of non-executive directors, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/higgsreport.pdf. Accessed 20 April 2015. The 1998 Combined Code, in terms of audit committees, was also revised by the Smith Committee which published a report in January 2003. See The Smith Committee (2003). Audit committees combined code guidance, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/ac_report.pdf. Accessed 18 April 2015. Still in 2003, Tyson Task Force reviewed the Higgs Report which resulted in the publication of the Tyson Report in June 2003. See The Tyson Committee (2003). The recruitment and development of non-executive directors, http://facultyresearch.london.edu/docs/TysonReport.pdf. Accessed 15 April 2015. After a series of reviews and consultations, the UK Financial Services Authority and the London Stock Exchange, in June 2008, finally produced a new combined code. See Financial Reporting Council (2008). The combined code on corporate governance, https://frc.org.uk/Our-Work/Publications/Corporate-Governance/The-Combined-Code-on-Corporate-Goverance.aspx, accessed 10 April 2015.

The 2010 UK Corporate Governance was revised in 2014 with regard to information provided by companies which affect longer-term viability of companies. The document was just recently again corrected with regard to the audit issue in order to comply with the European Commission Audit Statutory in April 2016. See Financial Reporting Council (2014).

    In the Netherlands, the discussion on corporate governance was initiated by the first Dutch Corporate Governance Committee (Peters Committee) in 1997. The Peters Committee produced a report entitled corporate governance in the Netherlands: recommendations for sound management, effective supervision, and accountability which contains of 40 recommendations. See Corporate Governance Committee (1997). Corporate governance in the Netherlands: recommendations for sound management, effective supervision, and accountability, http://www.ecgi.org/codes/documents/nl-peters_report.pdf, accessed 19 April 2015. As stated by J. Van Bekkum et al, “the 40 recommendations of the Peters Committee herald a fundamental overhaul of Dutch corporate law to restore the position of shareholders through the combination of changes in 2014 to Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code (DCC), containing the companies act, a Corporate Governance Code issued by the Tabaksblat Committee in 2003, and case law of the enterprise Chamber of Amsterdam Court of Appeal (the Enterprise Chamber)”. See van Bekkum et al. (2010). Later, a Corporate Governance Committee chaired by Morris Tabaksblat (the Tabaksblat Committee) reviewed the Peters Committee report which resulted in issuing the Dutch Corporate Governance Code in 2003. See Corporate Governance Committee 2003b. The Dutch corporate governance code 2003, http://www.commissiecorporategovernance.nl/download/?id=647, accessed 27 April 2015. Five years later, in 2008, the 2003 Code was replaced by the Dutch Corporate Governance Code 2008. The 2008 Code was produced by a Corporate Governance Monitoring Committee led by Jean Frijns (the Frijns Committee). See Corporate Governance Code Monitoring Committee (2008).
