It’s Not Who The Directors Come From, but Their Skills and Ability to Fulfill Their Fiduciary Duties
- People who can make business strategy decisions that are economic sense should be hired to serve on the board, not necessarily investors or financial experts.
- If the motivation to increase corporate value is weak, linking the compensation of directors to the expansion of corporate value or granting them the company’s stock is an alternative.
