The Millstein Center for Corporate Governance and Performance at the Yale School of Management has begun a multi-year effort designed to encourage research into, and disseminate further knowledge of, international experience in the field of corporate governance codes and standards. The Center is requesting proposals for existing and original research on the role of corporate governance codes and standards, as developed and implemented by governments, private sectors, commercial bodies and the like, on markets, regulation, investors, company performance and behavior, or the practices of intermediaries. Submissions are encouraged from all academic disciplines including, but not limited to, finance, corporate governance, corporate social responsibility, international business, economics and law. Selected authors may participate in a conference scheduled to take place at Yale University in March 2012.
The preliminary call for papers is available on SSRN. (Check the center’s website here for updates.) Abstracts are due by July 1, 2011. mw
