Smartkarma Webinar | Corporate Governance and Value Creation in Japan

On our next Webinar, we welcome Insight Provider Aki Matsumoto who will speak about the state of corporate governance in Japan. We will address whether corporate governance in the country is improving, and how it is linked to corporate profits and stock prices - something that not only investors, but also managers want to learn more about.
