Opis

The papers in this book constitute the largest firm-level corporate governance analysis undertaken across Latin American countries. The new datasets in the book allow the researchers to conclude that companies with better self-imposed firm-level governance practices or with listings in U.S. markets are given higher valuations and can raise capital at a lower cost.
