Abstract
This paper offers a primer on corporate governance regulation. Justifications for state intervention in the corporate governance context are canvassed initially. Potential drawbacks with regulation are discussed next. The paper then surveys “rule types”, focusing primarily on the “presumptive” and mandatory varieties. The paper concludes with a discussion of corporate governance codes.
