Corporate Governance in US & UK: Principles & Compliance

This course provides an in-depth exploration of corporate governance frameworks as practiced in the United States and the United Kingdom, with a specific focus on financial institutions and regulatory compliance. Learners will define, analyze, and evaluate key concepts such as stakeholder roles, governance structures, risk oversight, and board accountability. Through a structured two-module format, the course first builds foundational knowledge of corporate governance systems, emphasizing board responsibilities, stakeholder relationships, and governance failures. The second module deepens this understanding through global frameworks such as the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) principles, Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), Dodd-Frank Act, and the UK Corporate Governance Code. By the end of the course, learners will be able to critically assess governance practices, compare international legal standards, and recommend best practices for improving transparency, board effectiveness, and ethical conduct across corporate environments.
