What's happened in financial markets the world over could've well been averted had stringent CG ethics been implemented. It's appalling that listed companies that sought investor confidence didn't have requisite checks in place to command/protect investor confidence in the first place! Take the case of the Wall Street investment banks and what's happened recently to India's Satyam. If we want to leave an indelible mark on the world's economic map now and in the future, the Arab private sector should do all that it can to check accountability and transparency.
