Do board characteristics drive firm performance? An international perspective (2019, result): “According to the figures in Table 1, the countries most represented are the United States with 33.50% of the companies in the sample, Canada with 10.20%, United Kingdom with 10% and Japan with 9.8%.”
Managerial Entrenchment and Corporate Social Performance (2008, unknown): “10 The effectivity of the board of directors as control mechanism will depend negatively on the power of the manager (Lasfer, 2006) but positively on external control mechanisms like the product market competition (Bozec, 2005).”
The impact of board size on firm performance: evidence from the UK (2009, background): “The advantage of larger board size is the greater collective information that the board subsequently possesses and hence larger boards will lead to higher performance (Dalton et al., 1999, 2005).”
