Abstract:The purpose of this paper is to draw together different facets of corporate governance that have been examined in the extensive literature in both strategic management and finance. The results indicate that while some of the traditional agency variables do impact performance industry performance is a strong and significant driver of performance for the sample of firms. The authors conclude that, while there is evidence to support that firms may use governance package to deal with agency issues, further research could provide important evidence on these issues by focusing on examining a more refined, industry-level context.
