Session 1: Overview of OECD Principles and Corporate Governance within Banking Sector This session will lay out the latest developments in corporate governance within banking sector in the APEC region and around the world and introduce OECD principles of good corporate governance, the current international financial architecture, and the role of financial institutions in promoting good corporate governance. The main challenges faced by APEC economies for strengthening corporate governance within banking sector will be also discussed. Session 2: The Regulatory Framework and Government's Role in Improving Corporate Governance within Banking Sector The financial institutions, especially banks, have their own special characteristics. The failure will have a systemic dimension. Furthermore, the principal and agent relationship in banks is more complicated. Therefore, the corporate governance in banking sector is something different from other sectors, where the depositors and public interest should be paid more attention. This session will discuss how to improve the regulatory framework, strengthen the market disciplines on financial institutions, deliver explicit and implicit government support for financial institutions and promote efficient financial markets. The government’s role in improving corporate governance within banking sector will be highlighted. Session 3: Panel Discussion: Experience sharing of Corporate Governance in Central Banks Good corporate governance is important not just for market participants, but also for regulatory and supervisory authorities. The sound corporate governance practice in supervisory agencies is fundamental in improving corporate governance within the whole banking sector. Through panel discussion, experience sharing of corporate governance in central banks from different economies such as P.R.China, Indonesia and Canada will be realized in this session. Session 4: Compliance, Business Ethics and Corporate Governance within Banking Sector Ethics is what we do because it is "right", an inner sense of integrity and good judgment. The conformance and compliance focus in the boardroom is imposed upon directors to avoid penalties under the law. The law merely creates a challenge to those with poor judgment. The values, culture, political sensitivity and management style of directors is the key to effective governance. No legislation will replace the basic requirement for strong business ethics, intellectual honesty and integrity in the boardroom. This session will address different culture, value and political sensitivity which will affect the corporate governance. Anti-corruption methods will also be discussed in this session. Session 5: Panel Discussion: Sound Corporate Governance Practices in Banks: Basel 2 The new Basel 2 Accord comes at a time when banks and regulators in the region continue reforms after the Asian financial crisis and when governance arrangements are seen as being central matters on the reform agenda. Basel 2 represents some additional challenges for banks. It will require banks to better manage (and price) risk and capital and improve market disclosure. Banks and regulatory agencies will have a need to review their governance arrangements, desirably against some valuable benchmarks reflecting the essence of sound practices and highest ethical standards. The session will consider how benchmarks might best be developed specifically for the banking sector in the context of Basel 2 (drawing on, inter alia, the OECD Asian White Paper), how they might be promoted in regional banking systems, and their relevance more broadly to improving corporate governance in the region.
