Goals of Corporate Governance

PointStar believes that any changes in pursuit of excellence in corporate governance should be driven by the following goals:

  • Maximize long-term shareholder value
  • Minimize risk of material declines in shareholder value
  • Buttress "reasonability" defenses for directors and executives

Clearly, the first two goals are the highest priority. However, in today's litigious, high-publicity environment, each person involved in corporate governance need to take every action possible to assure responsible, well-intentioned choices are made and that serious errors and oversights do not compromise shareholder value.
