Corporate governance and the criticism of shareholder value

The complexity of corporate governance and the need to consider a set of various economic, social, legal, historical and cultural determinants lead to the development of different research perspectives. Despite the multi-theme approaches the concept of shareholder value, the fundamental assumption of principal-agent theory, appeared to become the paradigm for research of the efficiency of corporate governance mechanisms and evolution and gave rise to many regulations or best practice. Corporate governance inefficiencies identified with the outbreak of the financial crisis cast doubt not only on the effectiveness of the shareholder value approach, but also on its economic and social argumentation. The current critic of this perspective may have impact on the corporate governance practice and regulation.
