Research by
Marcus Caylor, accounting, and Lawrence D. Brown, Georgia State University,
was cited in an article in the August 1 issue of
CFO magazine. The article, "More Rules, Higher Profits?", mentions their findings that
some corporate governance factors can help a company's performance; other factors can, in fact, be
harmful. Caylor's and Brown's research is described in their paper,
titled "Corporate Governance and Firm Performance," which is now the 164th most downloaded
paper out of 99,043 posted to the Social Science Research Network.
