| danlan | It's more used to overcome conflicts among different group in a same corporate, that's why D and not A |
| Poorvi | I thought it was C! That is Corporate Ethics I guess. |
| group | D is a more complete answer since it talks about priniciples, policies and procedures used to manage and control activities of a corporation in order to overcome conflicts of interest inherent in the corporate form. |
| ascruggs92 | It is also not A because it is not just to monitor management, but to look out for shareholders best interests in general |
I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
