This dissertation considers the extent to which UK public companies have been effectively regulated through the system of corporate governance. The discourse considers how legislation has developed, and how company directors’ duties have been affected by the Companies Acts of 2005 and 2006. The research mentions vivid examples of corporate turbulence, such as the takeover of Rolls-Royce and the collapse of Northern Rock, and also considers the workings of US regulation – comparing American and British developments. The outcomes of UK legal cases provide a highly-detailed and weighty authority to the dissertation.
