  • Role of Corporate Goverance and Sebi : a Critical Analysis
    Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology Issn No : 1006-7930 ROLE OF CORPORATE GOVERANCE AND SEBI : A CRITICAL ANALYSIS Dr. Neetu Prakash Assistant Professor, Guru Nanak Khalsa College for Women, Model Town, Ludhiana ABSTRACT Corporate frauds or financial crimes or financial frauds can be classified as white-collar crimes, which represent the illegal acts that are characterized by deceit, concealment or violation of trust. The fraudulent exercises practiced by Enron, WorldCom and Martha Steward shook the world. Of these scandals, the Enron accounting scandal was the most infamous one. There were similar allegations against the WorldCom Company, whose CEO Bernard Ebbers hid an expenditure of $11 bn; later this led the company to bankruptcy. Frauds have occurred in almost every country in the world, in almost every sector, including banking, insurance, telecom, automobile industry, health, and the list is endless. The growing focus on cross-border expansion, high levels of growth with internal processes not keeping pace and large number of new employees joining the organization are making most companies vulnerable to greater fraud risk in recent times. The IT hackers and fraudsters can pose a significant threat of a financial crime. Cyber-crimes, economic crimes, ethical crimes, falsification of accounts by showing inflated profits, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of confidential information, non- disclosure of material facts etc. are causing enormous harm to the rights and interests or the society. Every such corporate fraud is a heinous crime against humanity, as it adversely affects and ruins the fortunes of large segments of innocent people. There are several adverse consequences of financial crimes.

  • Private Sector Opinion Issue 11
    Private Sector Opinion CRASHES, BAILOUTS, REGULATIONS Issue 11 Foreword With the recent stock market frauds in markets around the world such as the Madoff case in the U.S. and the recent Satyam fraud in India, no nation can hold A Global Corporate its head high and claim to have good corporate governance. The reality is that the problems of fraud, faulty audits, misleading accounts, lack of transparency, Governance Forum conflicts of interest, criminal destruction of records and a long list of other cor- porate governance violations, are not limited to emerging markets but are very Publication much in evidence in developed markets as well. Given recent events then, the importance of sound corporate governance is becoming increasingly apparent. International organizations like the OECD, the World Bank and the International Corporate Governance Network (ICGN), along with major fund managers, are formulating sets of codes and principles that can be applied globally. It is also clear, however, that governments have generally done a poor job of policing the complex world of finance and that the greater part of the task will be left to self- policing on the part of the participants. There is no doubt about it: sound corporate governance pays. Several studies undertaken by various organizations have shown that: there is a direct relation- ship between good corporate governance and investment returns. The oversight that comes from transparency and accountability creates a structure where the managers are discouraged from mismanaging the company, be it though a lack of diligence or care, improper decision-making, or even intentioned unconscio- nable behavior.

  • Harshad Mehta and the Billion-Dollar Scam
    HKU904 PREETI GOYAL SANJAY DHAMIJA FINANCIAL SYSTEM SECURITY: HARSHAD MEHTA AND THE BILLION-DOLLAR SCAM Harshad Mehta, the iconic “Big Bull” of the Indian stock markets, unceremoniously departed from this world on 31 December 2001. Mehta, the notorious architect of a billion-dollar Indian stock market scam that was exposed in early 1992, left behind a legacy of criminal cases, legal battles, debts and soured dreams. He had single-handedly both ignited and shattered the dreams of millions of Indians of earning the glamourous returns that stock markets potentially offered. As if right out of a fairy tale, Mehta’s was a classic rags-to-riches story. Spending his early childhood in a small Indian town, he became one of the foremost stockbrokers in India. Mehta died in custody 10 years after the scandal that made him a household name in India. What were the deficiencies in the microstructure of the Indian financial system that Mehta was able to exploit to pull off his billion-dollar scam? Pre-1991 Indian Financial System Long before the formal financial systems came about, Indian traders exchanged promissory notes called “hundis”. Trading in these promissory notes usually took place under a large banyan or neem tree. The hundis were used for both local trade and trade between port towns and inland centres of production. They were used as instruments to provide liquidity to the markets and also to move money across time and space. Formal banking systems evolved with the setting up of the Bank of Bengal in 1809, the Bank of Bombay in 1840 and the Bank of Madras in 1843.

  • The Growth of Sebi
    THE GROWTH OF SEBI - FROM HARSHAD MEHTA TO SUBRATA ROY By Simran Chandok410 INTRODUCTION The Securities Exchange Board of India popularly known as SEBI is in its 27th year of existence. However, the original architects of SEBI would not recognize what it has become today. From a mere regulatory authority to a statutory authority; from a silent spectator to the market watchdogs; SEBI has come a long way since its inception. SEBI came into existence on 12th April, 1988. It replaced the Controller of Capital Issues Department of the Government. In 1988, SEBI had limited powers with a negligible jurisdiction. In 1992, the SEBI Act bestowed a plethora of responsibilities on the body and gave it a statutory status. Thus after 1992, SEBI was known as a statutory authority and its jurisdiction extended to the whole country except the erstwhile princely states of Jammu & Kashmir. The SEBI Board is headed by a Chairman (nominated by the Union Government of India). The Board consists of 2 Officers from the Union Finance Ministry serving as whole time members, 1 member from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and 5 members nominated by the RBI (at least 3 out of 5 RBI nominated members must be whole time members). Currently, U.K. Sinha is the Chairman of the SEBI Board. Since its inception, SEBI has grown steadfastly. Its gradual growth can be analyzed through 3 scams- Harshad Mehta Securities Fraud, Satyam Scandal and Sahara Scam. DEVELOPMENT OF SEBI THROUGH THE 3 DECADES Harshad Mehta Securities Fraud (1988-1995) 410 2nd Year BBA LLB (Hons.), Symbiosis Law School, Pune International Journal For Legal Developments & Allied Issues Volume 1 Issue 2 [ISSN 2454-1273] 205 In 1988, SEBI had limited powers.
