CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND WEBSITES: A Field Study
Abstract
Corporate governance aims to protect interests of all stakeholders against companies’
activities and applications by adding transparency, accountability, justice and
participation to managerial activities as internalized principles. Reliance on corporate
managements, accounting and finance specialists, and financial reports declined
especially after the accounting and corporation scandals occurred in the USA and other
states. Sharing financial reports with the public opinion is significant for the
establishment of basic principles of corporate governance such as transparency and
accountability. In this context, internet based financial reporting applications carry
critical value in order to fulfill the expected function. Therefore, this study examines
the listed companies on ISE (Istanbul Stock Exchange), and evaluates the relation
between corporate governance applications and the internet based financial reporting in
order to analyse the current situation in Turkey.
