解説
問 18
Incorrectア
Expanding the labor and HR system so that women can thrive more easily is about promoting diversity and creating a more comfortable workplace (an HR and labor measure); its purpose differs from strengthening governance that monitors and disciplines managers.
Incorrectイ
Acquiring another company's business (M&A) is a management-strategy measure aimed at expanding operations; it does not strengthen the governance mechanism that monitors the management team.
- ウ
正解 Corporate governance is a mechanism that monitors and disciplines whether managers run the company in the interests of stakeholders such as shareholders. Choice ウ, increasing the number of highly independent outside directors, strengthens the function of objectively checking the management team from a position free of internal ties, so it directly reinforces the governance function of monitoring and keeping management in check. Therefore the most appropriate example is choice ウ.
Incorrectエ
Withdrawing from a business that is unlikely to be profitable is a judgment about selection and concentration of businesses, a matter of management strategy and business restructuring; it does not amount to strengthening governance (monitoring and disciplining management).
ここがポイント
- Corporate governance = a mechanism for monitoring and disciplining whether managers run the company in the interests of stakeholders.
- Increasing the number of outside directors (especially highly independent ones) is a representative example of governance strengthening that reinforces objective monitoring independent of the management team.
