About the Corporations, Governance & Society Research Group

CGS emerged with the increasing focus on corporate governance, corporate social responsibility and regulatory issues by research staff and students at The Australian National University (ANU). Although the group developed within the College of Business & Economics at the ANU, we welcome the participation of any researchers associated with the ANU, including visitors and research students.

The purpose of CGS is to promote development and cooperation across the disciplinary areas relevant to governance of the relationships between corporations and their stakeholders through markets and regulation. The research interests of current CGS participants include:

  • accountability, disclosures and auditing
  • environmental and social disclosures and accountability
  • board issues
  • corporate ownership
  • corporations and political engagement
  • emergence of corporate forms and norms
  • financial markets and corporate governance
  • managerial entrenchment
  • mergers and acquisitions
  • regulation of corporations and markets
