Virtually all developing, transitioning, and emerging-market economies are faced with one pressing concern at the moment: how to establish the groundwork for long-term economic performance and competitiveness in a diverse market. However, without the existence of good corporate governance in these economies, small enterprise will cease to exist in developing countries. Corporate Governance Models and Applications in Developing Economies is a collection of innovative research that contributes to the better understanding of corporate governance models by documenting the structures, principles, tenets, case studies, and applications for the development of good business practices in developing economies. While highlighting topics including risk management, financial distress, and insider trading, this book is ideally designed for corporate managers, executives, economists, strategists, investors, shareholders, students, researchers, academicians, business professionals, and policymakers.

Purpose of this paper - This paper seeks to investigate the conditions and processes affecting the operation and potential effectiveness of audit committees, with particular focus on the interaction between the audit committee, individuals from financial reporting and internal audit functions and the external auditors. Design/methodology/approach - A case study approach is employed, based on direct engagement with participants in audit committee activities, including the audit committee chair, external auditors, internal auditors, and senior management.Findings - We find that informal networks between audit committee participants condition the impact of the audit committee and that the most significant effects of the audit committee on governance outcomes occur outside the formal structures and processes. An audit committee has pervasive behavioural effects within the organization and may be used as a threat, an ally and an arbiter in bringing solutions to issues and conflicts. Audit committees are used in organizational politics, communication processes and power plays and also affect interpretations of events and cultural values. Research limitations/implications - Further research on audit committee and governance processes is needed to develop better understanding of effectiveness. Longitudinal studies, focusing on the organizational and institutional context of audit committee operations, can examine how historical events in an organization and significant changes in the regulatory environment affect current structures and processes.Originality/value - The case analysis highlights a number of significant factors which are not fully recognised either in theorizing the governance role of audit committees or in the development of policy and regulations concerning audit committees but which impinge on their governance contribution. They include (i) the importance of informal processes around the audit committee; (ii) its influence on power relations between organizational participants; (iii) the relevance of the historical development of governance in an organization; (iv) and the possibility that the audit committee's impact on governance may be greatest in non-routine situations.

Why do we need to understand audit committees? The Cadbury Committee recommended that UK companies should adopt them in response to financial scandals that have stemmed from dubious financial reporting practices. In other countries, similar commissions have made similar recommendations and audit committees are now a common institution. However, many practitioners doubt whether an audit committee really does much to ensure the integrity of a firm's financial statements because, as outsiders, members don't know enough to dig deeply beneath the numbers. The Audit Committee: Performing Corporate Governance argues that such criticism overlooks the ceremonial function of these committees. The audit committee is an arena where members can form and strengthen shifting and fragmentary networks with each other and with the external auditors. Within these networks, both consensus and independence are demonstrated, generating comfort, which legitimises the company and maintains its access to external sources of capital. The audit committee is a key part of the corporate governance structure within an organisation. Many in the UK have been patched together to meet regulatory requirements and their operation is poorly understood because few people other than their members have access to their deliberations. In this account of the world of audit committees the practitioner will find the ethnographical perspectives on ceremonial performance, consensus, independence, and comfort both familiar and different. It's like looking at a photograph of something commonplace from an unusual angle or through a strange-shaped lens.
