Abstract

The purpose of this academic document is to explain the need for the implementation of what is known as Corporate Governance in companies considered large that are subject to the Superintendence of Companies. With a view to fulfilling this objective, we developed an analysis where we will find the background of this figure, that is, what triggered its creation as a solution to economic or financial vicissitudes within companies worldwide. Later we will find the first chapter where we will review the relevant definitions, such as finding out what a Corporate Government is, what is considered a large company; then, within the second chapter, we find the Ecuadorian legal framework of the Corporate Governance, the stages of the initiative of its application, the benefits of adopting these practices in large Ecuadorian companies, the problems it faces, the Corporate Governance in Comparative Law; and finally we come to the respective conclusions and recommendations.
