Data from 110 companies listed in Tehran stock exchange market from 2007 to 2013 has been used in analysis. Testing the hypotheses was carried out through linear regression. Results revealed that managerial ownership has a negative and significant relationship with financial performance while institutional ownership has a positive relationship with financial performance. Major shareholders have negative relationship with financial performance. Moreover, there is a negative and significant correlation between duality of CEO’s tasks and firms’ financial performance.

It was also characterised by extensive corporate (financial) sector failure in South-East Asia. Since 2001 a number of major (non-financial) corporations have failed in the USA and Europe. The majority of these failures have been attributed to an absence or dereliction of efficient disclosure and corporate governance. Africa has yet to witness the level of corporate failure experienced elsewhere, but it should be able to learn some lessons and perhaps leapfrog some of these experiences. This will only be possible, however, if disclosure and corporate governance in Africa is carefully analysed, and implemented in the context of appropriate institutions. This paper carries out an assessment of the state of play of corporate governance in Africa. An extensive literature search of academic, policy and private sector documentation on corporate governance in Africa shows that there has been little or no academic...
