Deregulation and corporate governance

Abstract

This chapter appraises the basis and modes for deregulation of key sectors of the Nigerian economy and situates them in the emerging corporate governance frameworks prompted by inevitable domestic and global realities. It upholds the symbiosis of deregulation and privatisation of corporate entities but concludes in favour of formal governance of the corporate bodies in the deregulated and privatised industries. It also urges best practices on the contents of our corporate governance regulations and practices.
