The corporation remains the major driver of economic activity in Hong Kong and Asia. Because of this the quality of corporate governance has become increasingly important in determining the competitiveness and dynamism of the corporation in today’s fast-moving global markets.

Why do we need corporate governance?
Unless Asian corporations begin addressing the issue of corporate governance quickly and seriously, they are likely to loose their investors in the short-term, their competitiveness in the medium-term, and their business in the long-term.
The United States-based Corporate Governance Network says there is growing mistrust among investors as a result of accounting scandals, poor corporate governance and conflicts of interest that have been occurring in the business sector worldwide.
Ten years ago, we took it upon ourselves to produce a publication dedicated to improving the standards of corporate governance in Asia . At that point in time, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act had been minted in response to the spectacular collapse of Enron in 2001 that resulted in losses to investors of more than US$60 billion.
Ten years on, today, the world of business and investing still face the same problems about rogue corporations and managers with the same devastating results of severe losses to investors. This comes amid the climate of frequent changes in the marketplace where innovation and cutthroat competition outpace the regulators’ ability to police these activities.
Recent initiatives across Asia illustrates that corporate governance remains an important undertaking in this region. Amid the unraveling of fraud issues that hurt the investors, efforts are continuing to improve
the corporate landscape and make Asia a better place to conduct business. Regulators continue to strive for fair, transparent and orderly market environment through swift enforcement actions, while professional firms and industry bodies continue to promote responsible corporate conduct and practices.
Despite developments of Corporate Governance in the region and many entities and regulators doing their best, there is still a yawning gap in the availability of information and communication materials which can be directly applied to the unique situations face by Asian corporations in their effort to upgrade their corporate governance practices and standards.
為什麼我們需要企業管治?
除非亞洲企業能夠迅速和認真地解決企業 管治的問題,否則,短期來看,將失去他們 的投資者;中期來看,則會進一步失去競爭 能力;至於長期來看,企業更會失去業務。總部位於美國的企業管治網絡報告稱,全 球商業領域發生的會計醜聞、企業管治不 力和利益衝突導致投資者的不信任感越來
越強。
十年前,我們創立了一個旨在改善亞洲 企業管治標準的刊物。當時,為了應對 2001 年造成投資者損失超過600 億美元 的安然案,薩班斯– 奧克斯利法案登上 了歷史舞台。
十年之後的今天, 商業和投資界仍然面臨 著相同的問題,不良企業和經理人仍導致 投資者損失慘重。在市場環境變化莫測的 時代中,創新和殘酷競爭等因素,令監管機 構失郤了監督這些活動的能力。
亞洲地區近期的行動表明,企業管治仍是 這一地區的一個重要任務。在解決傷害投 資者的欺詐問題的同時,各國也在努力改善 企業經營環境,使亞洲成為一個更有利營 商的地區。通過快速的執法行動,監管機構 繼續尋求建立一個公平、透明和有秩序的 市場環境;另一邊廂,專業事務所和行業機
構則繼續提倡負責的企業行為和實踐。
盡管區內的企業管治發展有所進步,而很 多企業和監管機構亦已經竭盡全力來推行 措施,但對於亞洲企業來說,一些可助其提 高企業管治和標準、直接應用於企業所面 對的特殊情況的訊息和溝通材料,卻依然 十分短缺。
