Banking Corporate Governance Systems in the UK and Pakistan: A Comparative Analysis

Recent historical high profile banking failures revealed series of shortcomings in the banking governance structures of developed countries and triggered the developing countries to make alterations in the banking governance frameworks or to form parallel regimes. This book is an attempt to portray a picture of banking governance systems of UK and Pakistan by comparative analysis of various key players and to asses at what extent corporate governance systems of these countries are converging or diverging in the presence of various issues and differences. This book is endeavouring to find out whether it is right for a developing country like Pakistan to transplant imported rules, regulations and codes of developed country like UK, or to develop its own structure according to persisting economic and social circumstances. This book is a useful source for different institutions, policy makers, researchers, students and professionals in the field of corporate governance especially for regulators of both the countries who are in quest to make rules and regulations for sound banking governance.
