Description

This Routledge book examines why corporate governance safeguards frequently fail to prevent accounting scandals and financial misreporting. By analysing the cognitive and behavioural factors that lead auditors and board members to overlook or misrepresent a company's true financial position, the author reveals systemic weaknesses in financial information reporting. Drawing together research from corporate governance, accounting, law, and cognitive science, this provocative study addresses a critical gap in understanding how rational decision-making breaks down in boardrooms and audit committees. The book provides essential insights for anyone seeking to comprehend why traditional governance mechanisms often prove ineffective despite their theoretical design, making it invaluable for professionals, researchers, and policymakers concerned with improving corporate accountability and financial transparency.

Key Features

Behaviour and Rationality in Corporate Governance forms part of the Routledge Studies in Corporate Governance series, offering specialised academic analysis of governance systems and their failures.

The book explores cognitive research alongside corporate governance and accounting literature to explain why auditors regularly fail to report accurate financial information.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher, this second volume combines multiple disciplines including law and cognitive science to address corporate reporting problems.

This study examines the behavioural factors behind audit failures and board ineffectiveness in preventing accounting scandals and financial misstatements.

The book provides a provocative analysis of systemic weaknesses in corporate governance safeguards designed to prevent bad accounting practices.
