The goal of this article is to provide guidance to bank holding companies and their boards in understanding and applying sound corporate governance practices. As a threshold matter, it is important to note that a bank's board of directors constitutes a group of persons chosen to serve the corporation by: 1) promoting constituent interests (often, but not exclusively, stockholder interests); 2) serving as the body governing the corporation's affairs; and 3) overseeing the management of the corporation. In this role, the board provides both oversight and strategic direction to the corporation.

In a recent article, I discussed the use of technology to help us live longer. Some three hours after it was printed and put on the Internet, an e-mail hit my site, sent from England, strongly taking me to task for my cavalier views and attitude. As I pointed out in my reply to my critic, the work was somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and he obviously had come upon it from a keyword he was using and not from any knowledge of my work. To believe that I am not in favor of a long and productive life is to know nothing of my views and what I talk about in this column. I do hesitate, however, to embrace the open-handed use of technology advocated by more and more of the younger citizens of our world.
In a recent article written for The American Society on Aging, Joseph Coughlin puts forth some inter...

Based on a literature review of terrorism and global business literature, this paper addresses those conditions that may lead to new considerations about risk and its management at policy and the MNE (multinational enterprise) level. How do MNEs adapt to the 09/11 - type risk in strategic management that shapes choices made for internationalization and for international business operations? It is observed that MNEs increasingly enlarge the notion of political risk. We suggest the development of a strategic risk assessment that incorporates terrorism which in its threat, event and aftermath does not remain local or national, but influences investment, location, logistics, supply-chain and other performance- linked decisions of the international value chain through an enlarged risk-return...
