Over the last 15-20 years significant changes took place in principal systems of corporate governance, that is in the Anglo-Saxon and German systems. These changes were of similar or the same character. This was resulted by recommendations on corporate governance issued by international institutions and organizations. The OECD and the European Commission played the most important part in this respect. They had a big impact on the formation and shape of the so-called codes of good practice, whose principles are generally implemented by companies, mainly listed companies. These principles happen to be of the so-called soft law character and after some encouraging experience with their use take on the form of legislation.

The characterization made shall serve as a starting point for the presentation of pilot research conducted among the chairmen of the supervisory boards of WIG20 and mWIG40 index companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The purpose of the conducted pilot program was the identification of the roles in which chairmen of the Polish supervisory boards see themselves, the range of their activity, and how they assess collaboration with the remaining members of the board and with the company management. An important dimension of the study was also the learning their opinion on corporate governance, inclusive of the identification of areas that, in their view, require correction. An analysis of the amassed observations indicates that among the main roles of chairman of a Polish supervisory board are being a director of compromise, organizer, coordinator of committee work, and a source of inspiration. Participants in this pilot study also saw the motivating of board members to be continuously involved in board work as an important task. They also thought that the chairman has a responsibility to understand the business in which their company operates. The listed roles fit into the set of roles identified in topical literature.

This article shows that empirical research supports the existence of a relationship between corporate governance and technological change. This relationship can be split into two parts: a strategic choice relationship, where governance impacts technological change, and a technological imperative relationship, where the reverse can be observed. These relationships modify the direct influences of technological change as well as corporate governance on economic success. Therefore, regulators should be aware that by shaping governance structures they also affect the competitiveness of corporations. However, since not enough knowledge is available to design optimum governance systems that would fit all sorts of corporate objectives, it is argued that corporations should be allowed to choose from a pre-defined set of governance structures without having to change the location of their headquarters. The proof for the existence of the two relationships in question is marred by numerous problems of measurement and analysis. Thus, substantial research into this field is suggested.

(Polish title: Rozwoj ladu korporacyjnego w krajach emerging markets jako przyczyna naplywu kapitalu zagranicznego na rynki kapitalowe. Przypadek Rumunii). Well constructed system of the principles of corporate governance can reduce the risk and stimulate the development of economy and the capital markets of developing countries. Following the path of developed countries emerging markets have to develop the principles of corporate governance, all the more they lack proper legal adjustments in the range of functioning of firms as a result of historical events. Corporate governance has a great significance for the enlargement of economy and the inflow of foreign capitals, the development of democracy and the attraction of multinational corporations, present on many capital markets of the world. The system of corporate governance in Romania is the example of the use of solutions, predominant in the countries of continental Europe. To raise the competitiveness of this country it is necessary to introduce reforms, regulating functioning of capital market and enterprises after the process of privatization.

The 2007-2009 financial crisis has had numerous causes. One of the most important has been the weakness of the corporate governance systems in most of the financial institutions. These systems were not efficient enough to prevent managers from taking too risky decisions, oriented on short-term profits. The abnormally high risk appetite has been encouraged by wrong incentive systems, rationalization mechanisms and opportunities created by lax regulatory framework. Corporate governance systems of financial institutions need to be improved .In particular the orientation of these systems needs to shifted form short-term perspective of shareholders returns to longer-term perspective of company performance and interests of all stakeholders

In constructing national corporate governance system it is very important to analyse market thoroughly and to adapt the system to the market conditions. The corporate governance is also discussed in Poland. The regulations adopted on Polish market are voluntary and are based on the Anglo-Saxon corporate solutions. There is a set of precise rules of behaviour addressing corporate bodies, their members and majority and minority shareholders. The measurement of observing rules enables us to compare different countries in their corporate governance. In the European Union there were several actions concerning capital market and corporate governance. 'Agenda Warsaw City 2010' also implies increasing capital market effectiveness by the 2010 as well as implementing further corporate governance rules.

(Polish title: Ochrona praw akcjonariuszy mniejszosciowych w swietle zasad corporate governance na podstawie analizy porownawczej Polska-Europa-Swiat). The debate on corporate governance is becoming increasingly important for both companies and investors. At its core is an attempt to respect the interests of all groups involved in the development of a company - executives, managers, employees, customers, creditors, suppliers etc. Honesty, trust, openness, respect and responsibility are the main rules of corporate governance. Better developed capital markets, which respect the principles of corporate governance, ensure more transparent policy and encourage even small investors to allocate their funds.
