Corporate governance provides an answer to the question who controls the corporation and how. It involves a set of relationships between management, shareholders and stakeholders. Corporate governance in Bosnia and Herzegovina is within the legal jurisdiction of entities, and consequently there are two substantially aligned and yet completely distinct corporate governance systems, which separates Bosnia and Herzegovina as a state in the international environment into a specific category in terms of corporate governance. This paper will analyze ownership concentration in order to identify the characteristics of the corporate governance systems, then it will present the principles on which the legal framework for corporate governance in Bosnia and Herzegovina is defined, compare the business transparency standards with the transparency directive in the EU, and measure the quality level of corporate governance in order to define key areas for improvement of corporate governance in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The development and characteristics of the corporate governance systems in Bosnia and Herzegovina will be explored and compared with the regulatory framework and standards of corporate governance in the European Union. Special emphasis is on comparing the transparency principles and standards of corporations in Bosnia and Herzegovina with corporations in the European Union. The aim of the research is to compare the regulatory framework and characteristics of the corporate governance system in corporations in Bosnia and Herzegovina with the standards in the European Union, to identify similarities and differences and to define key areas for improvement of corporate governance in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The Capital Market

A quality corporate governance system is a basic prerequisite for a sustainable growth economy, more easily increasing the efficiency of the economic system and guaranteeing access to external sources of capital. The level of quality of corporate governance can be defined as the degree of fulfillment of set standards of corporate governance defined at the international and national institutional level. In the new, modern business conditions, with strong dynamic changes in the social and business environment, modern corporate companies, ie their management bodies, are taking on new characteristics, adapting to new requirements and challenges. In this sense, the new demanding business conditions require continuous improvement of corporate governance potential. Based on previous theoretical and empirical knowledge, Bosnia and Herzegovina has the characteristics of a closed corporate governance system in both entities, so, as a basis for developing models for measuring the level of corporate governance, selected models that measure corporate governance in countries with typical closed corporate governance systems. A significant number of studies show that corporations that achieve higher standards and better corporate governance practices also have better business performance results and thus greater value in the capital market. This means that corporations with a higher level of corporate governance also have better financial operating results, easier access to financial capital, and greater value in the capital market. The main purpose of the research is to determine the level of influence of the quality of corporate governance on business performance, ie to determine whether corporations that had good corporate governance had higher business liquidity and vice versa. The main goal of the research is to establish the link and relationship between quality and corporate performance management indicators of the corporation's business.

This article aims at introducing the main corporate governance mechanism’ influence on governance in South Eastern Europe (Western Balkans) transition economies: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia and Slovenia. The implementation of corporate governance in transition economies, where Albania is one of the countries that have implemented such corporate governance principles, require a suitable legal framework and relevant protection of minority shareholders. In 2008 the new law “On entrepreneurs and commercial companies”was enacted.The latter introduced new practices and concepts, some of them not familiar to the Albanian legal system. This paper discusses comparative insight on the most pressing issues of corporate governance in selected economies of South-East Europe (Western Balkans). It is widely accepted that both private sector and governments can benefit from identification of the most important determinants and implications of good corporate governance. Corporate governance systems have a common goal – protection of investor’s rights and transparency of the system in which transactions take place. However, it is also well recognized that systems of corporate governance in attempt to gain necessary level of harmonization and consistency rely heavily on contextual factors of specific economy. Specifically, the research covers corporate governance in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia and Slovenia.

The restructuring of state-owned and public enterprises has attracted the attention of numerous researchers in the transition and post-transition period. The goal of restructuring as a business philosophy is to change and establish a new business philosophy, a new way of thinking. The correct interpretation of this term goes beyond its narrow and misleading translation, which equates to restructuring with a measure of change in structure. This paper examines the situation with the state-owned enterprises in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Although Bosnia and Herzegovina is characterized by the presence of two completely separate systems of corporate governance (corporate governance is regulated at an entity level without any common grounds at the level of Bosnia and Herzegovina), the symptoms of the situation are identical in both entities: state enterprises are commercially inefficient in both entities, and the reasons for their inefficiency are identical. The paper attempts to identify the symptoms and causes of such a state with a set of recommendations for the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, with clear definitions that, considering the trend of expansion of state-owned enterprises in highly developed countries, state-owned enterprises are needed here. It turns out that the privatized companies do not take into account the state interest. Following the logic of the OECD Guideline No. 2 (Ownership of State), first, it is considered how the state should manage the state-owned companies, and then by following the logic of the OECD Guideline no. 6 (Responsibilities of Committee) the complete corporation of state-owned enterprises is advocated in the way that state-owned enterprises have all the prerogatives of corruption, and are sufficiently distanced from political parties in power. Such an approach will significantly contribute to the improvement of corporate governance rating in Bosnia and Herzegovina that shows the atrophy of the system.
