Abstract (Original Language): 
Kurumsal yönetim, özellikle dünyadaki muhasebe skandallarından sonra 1990’lardan itibaren önem kazanmıstır. Sirketlerin çıkar grupları, yatırımcılar ve özellikle düzenleyici kurullar uygun kurumsal yönetim uygulamalarının sirketler tarafından uygulanması konusunda ısrar etmektedirler. En gelismis sermaye piyasalarının olduğu Amerika Birlesik Devletleri kurumsal yönetime iliskin düzenlemeler yapılmasında ve uygulanmasında her zaman öncü ülke olmustur. Bu nedenle, kurumsal yöentimin Birlesik Devletler’deki evrimini incelemek bugünkü uygulamaları anlamak açısından yararlı olacaktır.
