This lecture will introduce financial economics students to the concepts of Irish corporate governance, and corporate social responsibility. The goal is to show how lax corporate governance and financial fragility as defined by Minsky interact. Given the recent episodes in our indigenous banking sector, this lecture is pertinent, timely, and practical.
Here is a 3 slides per page handout, below are the slides themselves.
