  • Strategic corporate governance for sustainable mutual development

    • Authors: Ismail Azzam, Wajeeh; Muneeza, Aishath (2012)

  • Corporate governance has been dubbed by many as the guiding facet of modern day corporate entities. However, the success rate of the governance efforts are still unclear. It is high time that corporate governance efforts are integrated to accompany all aspects of the corporate entities and encompass the corporations' most valuable asset, its workers, as a primary benefactor rather than them being mere participants. Hence this paper aims to identify critical areas of inclusiveness and especially the impact of such an integrated effort on mutually developing the work force and the corporate entities.

  • Sustainable impact: "into the great wide open"

    • Authors: Vicary Abdullah, Daud (2017)

  • This month I would like to focus on the opportunities that we have ahead of us, so long as we remain patient, persistent and focused on making an impact. Overall, I would like to take a brief look at 4 areas that I believe will be critical during 2017 to take us further forward and into the great wide open. All of them could be tied back to my EPL theory (Education, Perception and Liquidity). All of them have the capability of having sustainable impact.

  • The effect of corporate governance structure on external audit fees: evidence from Malaysia

    • Authors: Muhamad Sori, Zulkarnain; Ramadili Mohd, Shamsher Mohamad; Karbhari, Yusuf (2009)

  • Over the last few decades, a sizeable number of studies have examined the relationship between audit pricing model and corporate governance characteristics in developed economies (O'Sullivan and Diacon, 1994; Short et al., 1999; Peel & Clatworthy, 2001; Clatworthy & Peel, 2006; Yatim et al., 2006). The Cadbury Report (1992) viewed the auditor's report as "one of the corner stones of corporate governance". Peel and Clatworthy (2001) highlights that audit report contribute significantly towards "effective governance of modern corporations".

  • The impact of audit committee existence on the external audit: perceptions of Malaysian bankers

    • Authors: Muhamad Sori, Zulkarnain; Ramadili Mohd, Shamsher Mohamad (2009)

  • The efforts towards better corporate governance practices of firms in the Malaysian capital market were started by the Securities Commission (SC) as early as 1996 in three-phased shift disclosure-based regulations (DBR). During Phase 1 (1996-1999: Flexible/Hybrid Merit Based Regime), the emphasis was to regulate on disclosure, due diligence and corporate governance. Phase 2 (January 2000: Partial DBR) still focused on corporate disclosure, due diligence and corporate governance, but included focus on promotion of accountability and self-regulation. In Phase 3 (2001 onwards: Full DBR) the SC enforced high standards of disclosure, due diligence and corporate governance as well as exerci...

  • The Impact of working capital management on the profitability of Shariah-compliant and con-Shariah firms: the case of Malaysia

    • Authors: Albdwy, Feras Fathi; Mohd Rasid, Mohamed Eskandar Shah; Syed Salman (2014)

  • This paper examines the impact of working capital management on the firm's profitability using retun on equity as its core determinant. Using a sampe of ninety listed Malaysian Shariah-compliant and non-Shariah firms react differently to similar firm specific variables. By employing static panel data estimation technique, we document that although the Shariah-compliant firms are subject to certain restrictions, they still efficiently compete with their conventional counterparts in terms of profitability by sustaining a higher return on equity. This might be attributed to better management of their receivables as well as a higher and better inventory turnover as per our empirical resul...

  • The relationship between corporate governance practices and auditor independence

    • Authors: Muhamad Sori, Zulkarnain; Abdul Wahab, Sazali (2012)

  • The accounting profession plays a major role in facilitating good governance, accountability and transparency among corporate participants, and more importantly. It has become the 'gatekeeper of financial truth' (A-Kadir, 2000), Indeed, the role played by auditors was deemed to be the financial aspect of corporate governance. Good financial reporting is critical to effective functioning of the capital market.

  • The role of human capital in economic development of the earliest Islamic period

    • Authors: Sadr, Seyed Kazem (2015)

  • The purpose of this paper is to provide explanation for the economic development of the earliest Islamic state. It focuses on the role of human capital as the most important element of this model and focuses on four dimensions of development of human personality in Islam: the incentive structure, rules of behavior, institutions and policies. A review and analysis of the measures and policies that Prophet of Islam and his successors adopted are made to arrive at the underlying economic model of development. The major finding is the role of human capital in the development of the economy at that time. The contribution of the paper is to identify the critical role of education and skills...

  • Understanding Malaysia's unique governance and ownership characteristics from the historical lens

    • Authors: Nahar, Hairul Suhaimi; Muhamad Sori, Zulkarnain; Ramadili Mohd, Shamsher Mohamad; Hassan, Taufiq (2012)

  • Prior research examining corporate governance issues across jurisdictional boundaries and market specificity (emerging and otherwise) have commonly adopted the functionalist approach of exploring governance implications towards specific economic phenomena covering among others, firm's performance and its reporting behaviour. These studies have utilized common research methods (often archival modeling) and theories (economic and management based) subscribing to the positivist paradigm in understanding specific research phenomena.
