The OECD Corporate Governance Factbook (the Factbook) supports the implementation of good corporate governance practices by providing easily accessible and up-to-date information about countries’ institutional, legal and regulatory frameworks. Governments may use the Factbook to compare their own frameworks with that of other countries and also to obtain information about practices in specific jurisdictions.
The Factbook contains comparable data and information on 49 OECD, G20 and Financial Stability Board jurisdictions, and can be used by governments, regulators and the private sector to compare their own frameworks with those of other countries.
The Factbook was presented at the G20/OECD Seminar on Corporate Governance in Today's Capital Markets in Fukuoka on 8 June 2019 in the presence of Taro Aso, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance, and Minister of State for Financial Services of Japan, and Ángel Gurría, Secretary-General, OECD.
