3 Mary Hobbes joined the board of Rosh and Company, a large retailer, as finance director earlier this year. Whilst shewas glad to have finally been given the chance to become finance director after several years as a financialaccountant, she also quickly realised that the new appointment would offer her a lot of challenges. In the first boardmeeting, she realised that not only was she the only woman but she was also the youngest by many years.Rosh was established almost 100 years ago. Members of the Rosh family have occupied senior board positions sincethe outset and even after the company’s flotation 20 years ago a member of the Rosh family has either been executivechairman or chief executive. The current longstanding chairman, Timothy Rosh, has already prepared his slightlyyounger brother, Geoffrey (also a longstanding member of the board) to succeed him in two years’ time when he plansto retire. The Rosh family, who still own 40% of the shares, consider it their right to occupy the most senior positionsin the company so have never been very active in external recruitment. They only appointed Mary because they feltthey needed a qualified accountant on the board to deal with changes in international financial reporting standards.Several former executive members have been recruited as non-executives immediately after they retired from full-timeservice. A recent death, however, has reduced the number of non-executive directors to two. These sit alongside anexecutive board of seven that, apart from Mary, have all been in post for over ten years.Mary noted that board meetings very rarely contain any significant discussion of strategy and never involve any debateor disagreement. When she asked why this was, she was told that the directors had all known each other for so longthat they knew how each other thought. All of the other directors came from similar backgrounds, she was told, andhad worked for the company for so long that they all knew what was ‘best’ for the company in any given situation.Mary observed that notes on strategy were not presented at board meetings and she asked Timothy Rosh whether theexisting board was fully equipped to formulate strategy in the changing world of retailing. She did not receive a reply.Required:(a) Explain ‘agency’ in the context of corporate governance and criticise the governance arrangements of Roshand Company. (12 marks)

(a) Contrast the role of internal and external auditors. (8 marks)(b) Conoy Co designs and manufactures luxury motor vehicles. The company employs 2,500 staff and consistently makes a net profit of between 10% and 15% of sales. Conoy Co is not listed; its shares are held by 15 individuals, most of them from the same family. The maximum shareholding is 15% of the share capital.The executive directors are drawn mainly from the shareholders. There are no non-executive directors because the company legislation in Conoy Co’s jurisdiction does not require any.

The board of Conoy Co concur with this view. Anders Co, the external auditors have also expressed concern in this area and the fact that the internal audit department focuses work on control systems, not financial reporting. Anders Co are appointed by and report to the board of Conoy Co.The board of Conoy Co are considering a proposal from the chief internal auditor to establish an audit committee.The committee would consist of one executive director, the chief internal auditor as well as three new appointees.One appointee would have a non-executive seat on the board of directors.Required:Discuss the benefits to Conoy Co of forming an audit committee.

Text 1 Ruth Simmons joined Goldman Sachs's board as an outside director in January 2000;a year later she became president of Brown University.For the rest of the decade she apparently managed both roles without attracting much criticism.But by the end of 2009 Ms.Simmons was under fire for having sat on Goldman's compensation committee;how could she have let those enormous bonus payouts pass unremarked?By February the next year Ms.Simmons had left the board.The position was just taking up too much time,she said.Outside directors are supposed to serve as helpful,yet less biased,advisers on a firm's board.Having made their wealth and their reputations elsewhere,they presumably have enough independence to disagree with the chief executive's proposals.If the sky,and the share price,is falling,outside directors should be able to give advice based on having weathered their own crises.The researchers from Ohio University used a database that covered more than 10,000 firms and more than 64,000 different directors between 1989 and 2004.Then they simply checked which directors stayed from one proxy statement to the next.The most likely reason for departing a board was age,so the researchers concentrated on those“surprise”disappearances by directors under the age of 70.They found that after a surprise departure,the probability that the company will subsequently have to restate earnings increases by nearly 20%.The likelihood of being named in a federal classaction lawsuit also increases,and the stock is likely to perform worse.The effect tended to be larger for larger firms.Although a correlation between them leaving and subsequent bad performance at the firm is suggestive,it does not mean that such directors are always jumping off a sinking ship.Often they“trade up,”leaving riskier,smaller firms for larger and more stable firms.But the researchers believe that outside directors have an easier time of avoiding a blow to their reputations if they leave a firm before bad news break,even if a review of history shows they were on the board at the time any wrongdoing occurred.Firms who want to keep their outside directors through tough times may have to create incentives.Otherwise outside directors will follow the example of Ms.Simmons,once again very popular on campus.
