  • 374 Networks of Power and Influence Board Interlocks in India 1995-2007
    WORKING PAPER NO: 374 Networks of Power and Influence Board Interlocks in India 1995-2007 – An Empirical Investigation S. Chandrashekar Professor Corporate Strategy and Policy Indian Institute of Management Bangalore Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore – 5600 76 Ph: 080-2699 3041 [email protected] K. Muralidharan Duisenberg School of Finance Netherlands [email protected] Year of Publication-September 2012 Networks of Power & Influence Board Interlocks in India 1995-2007 – An Empirical Investigation Abstract The Board interlock networks for 166 Indian companies have been studied for the period 1995 to 2007. The most well connected companies and the most well connected directors have been identified from this data set. The Indian network has also been compared with the networks of other countries for which similar data is available. Apart from studying the trends in the evolution and the dynamics of change in this network, the continuity of relationships between companies during this period has been a special focus of our study. This reveals that 45 percent of all companies in our sample set have remained continuously connected for more than ten years indicating a very stable core network. Family, caste and to some extent geography seem to be the important factors that determine this inner core network. The education and background of the Directors of the inner core network have also been compared with those of the Board interlock network for 2007. Based on our empirical findings and a survey of the Board Interlock literature a research agenda is suggested. This not only tries to address the specific issues that could be studied using Board interlock data but also covers the larger issues of institutions for corporate governance in the Indian context.
