Abstract
As a result of the many corporate scandals that have taken place around the world, best-practice corporate governance guidelines have been developed in most countries. Internationally, the biggest influence on these guidelines has come from the Institute of Directors (IoD)37 in London, through the advice they provide to other nations. Many countries that do not actually contract with the IoD for advice, nonetheless incorporate aspects of the IoD thinking in their best-practice guidelines.
