Corporate Governance for Banks in Pakistan: Recent Developments and Regional Comparisons

The emerging economies in the South Asian region have embarked on a bold reform process to develop the banking sector. This development has improved the transparency and accountability of the banking sector because these countries focused on ‘best practice’ corporate governance for banks. In view of a rapidly developing market with a slow pace of information dissemination, adverse selection and moral hazard problems are likely to be on the rise and may need a mechanism to train and discipline bank management. It was, therefore timely for the central banks in the region to introduce a ‘best practice’ for the banking system as a whole. This study provides a survey of recent developments in corporate governance of the banking sector in Pakistan and a comparison of similar developments in two other regional economies, namely, India and Bangladesh. In addition to a theoretical discussion on this issue, we also provide an overview of the banking sector restructuring and highlighting important features of the codes of corporate governance established by central banks in the sample countries. In conclusion, we present a comparison of the major differences in these measures across countries and comment on the pace of these developments.Corporate Governance, Banks, Pakistan

Perlindungan Hukum Kontrak dalam Perspektif Hukum Kontrak Kontemporer

Doktrin hukum pada prinsipnya terbagi atas dua, yaitu doktrin klasik dan doktrin kontemporer. Doktrin hukum kontrak klasik menekankan pada aspek kepastian hukum. Aspek ini tergambar dari penekanannya bahwa setiap pernyataan kehendak harus dituangkan dalam kontrak yang ditandatangani para pihak agar memiliki kekuatan mengikat. Doktrin klasik membedakan secara tegas wanprestasi dan perbuatan melawan hukum. Tuntutan atas pelanggaran kontrak harus dengan dasar wanprestasi, bukan perbuatan melawan hukum. Sebaliknya, doktrin kontemporer lebih menekankan pada aspek keadilan dan kepatutan. Doktrin kontemporer mengenal kontrak sebagai konstruksi yang terdiri atas tahap pracontractual, contractual, dan postcontractual. Karenanya, doktrin kontemporer menganggap janji-janji pra kontrak memiliki akibat hukum tertentu, hal mana berbeda dengan doktrin klasik yang tidak mengakui adanya akibat hukum pra kontrak. Doktrin kontemporer juga tidak lagi membedakan secara tegas wanprestasi dan perbuatan melawan hukum sebagai dasar gugatan pelanggaran kontrak karena wanprestasi pada prinsipnya merupakan specific genus dari perbuatan melawan hukum
