How does a crisis caused by COVID-19 affect corporate governance? This is not the first time that financial markets have shaken up the corporate world. In times of disruption, corporate leaders are forced to adjust so they can make more sustainable decisions in managing their firm’s corporate finance, preparing contingency plans, and disclosing information to other board members.
