Corporate Governance of Banks in Malaysia

Country papers on Thailand, Malaysia, the Republic of Korea, and Indonesia deal with aspects of bank governance and related issues. They are based on extensive questionnaire surveys conducted in each country, and address these issues:

• Asian crisis and banking sector problems
• Evolution and restructuring of the banking sector after the crisis
• Roles of financial safety nets - depositor protection, lender-of-last-resort function, etc. - and prudential regulation
• Effectiveness of internal corporate governance mechanisms: boards of directors, executive/director compensation, and risk management practices
• Market discipline in bank monitoring and governance: roles of shareholders, depositors and other creditors
