The aim of this research was to determine the influence of corporate governance practices on financial performance in listed agricultural companies in Kenya. The corporate governance practices included board of directors' composition and size, independence of board and audit committees. The researcher used a descriptive correlation research design to determine the relationship between corporate governance practices and financial performance. The population comprised of all the seven firms that were listed in the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) in the period 2012-2016. The data set comprised of secondary data collected from annual reports. A multiple regression model of financial performance against corporate governance practices was applied. It was found that some companies had violated the Capital Market Authority (CMA) Act threshold of three directors in the audit committee while other had poor board composition. Also breached was the benchmark set by the CMA Act for the independence of directors. The study established that corporate governance practices have no significant influence on ROE and ROA of listed agricultural firms in Kenya. However, it has significant influence on debt equity ratio. The findings concur with previous evidence from empirical studies on corporate governance, indicating that adoption of the various corporate governance practices by listed agricultural firms plays a part in the improvement of their performance financially.

The study examines the perceived effects of corporate governance mechanisms on the value of manufacturing firms in Nigeria by adopting economic value added as the measure of firm value. Corporate governance mechanisms such as concentrated ownership, managerial ownership, the board size, board independence, and foreign ownership as they influence corporate valuation were empirically investigated. 89 listed manufacturing firms in Nigeria were selected for 5 years (2012-2016) for the analysis. The study utilized different tests such as OLS panel data regression and multiple regression model to establish the relationship with panel corrected standard error (PCSE). The study is guided by resource enrichment theory and agency theory. The finding of the study shows that ownership concentration, the board size, and board independence positively impacted on firm value as measured by economic value added. However, managerial ownership and foreign ownership reported negative and insignificant impacts on the value of Nigerian manufacturing firms.

Malik, Difang, Ahmad, Naseem, and Rehman (2014) argued a large board can enhance a bank's performance as well as governance. Among others, the existence of a large board is important for monitoring and controlling (Shakir, 2008).…”

This study aims to compare environmental motives and performance of conventional and Islamic banks in Bangladesh. Green compliance index was developed based on the Bangladesh Bank (the central bank of Bangladesh) guidelines whereas information regarding governance variables is collected from the annual reports of 9 Islamic and 31 conventional banks. Results show Islamic banks are more environmentally friendly compared to their conventional counterparts. Board size is negatively related to green compliance whereas board independence and auditor's type do not have any significant influence on green compliance for both clusters of banks. Compliance with green banking policies enhances the reputation for Islamic banks and accountability and profitability for conventional banks. Results of this study provide useful information for regulatory authorities to formulate policies that are conducive to enhance bank's environmental performance.
