| dc.description.abstract | In Ethiopia, Private limited companies have increased in number, size and complexity and they require more complex organizational structures and a more diverse workforce possessing var ious levels and areas of expertise. In light of internationally recognized best practices and principles of corporate governance and ba sed on the available data and literature, this paper attempts to show the deficiency of the Commercial Code in addressing current issues in corporate governance of private limited companies related to absence board of directors in the governance structure, conditional ordinance of shareho lders meeting and auditors appointing, the minimum two person mandatory requirement for the format ion of such compan ies and issues regarding contlict of interest. The sketchy nature of the provisions of the Commercial Code that govern private limited companies and lack of reference to sha re companies' provisions worsen those problems. Accordingly, the paper provides crucial recommendations based on internationally recognized principles and practices of co rporate governance of private limited companies as they are expected to address the basic governance problems of Eth iopian private limited companies. The writer recommends that it is essential to formulate the contemporary corporate governance rules to the private limited companies in Ethiopia particularly making board of directors compulsory to the governance of such companies. Making private limited companies to have a governance board that should have an appropriate mix of knowledge, skills and experience is very vita l to make private limited companies effective and value add to the country's growth. | en_US |
