| Abstract: | This article studies the roles and limitations of non-executive directors. The results indicate that the main role of a non-executive director is to monitor. The asymmetry of information is seen as a primary limitation and can result into a so called “independence paradox”: in order to get adequate information, non-executives are dependent on the executives they are expected to supervise and be independent from. |
