Background of the Study
Government regulations serve as a critical mechanism for shaping corporate governance practices, ensuring accountability, transparency, and fairness in organizational management. In Nigeria, regulatory bodies such as the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) establish guidelines to promote good governance across various sectors (Afolabi & Adetunji, 2023). In Kaduna State, businesses are subject to these regulations, which aim to enhance governance practices and protect stakeholders' interests.
However, the impact of government regulations on corporate governance in Kaduna State remains a subject of debate. While regulations are intended to improve governance, businesses often cite compliance burdens and regulatory inefficiencies as barriers to achieving these objectives. This study assesses the extent to which government regulations influence corporate governance practices in Kaduna State.
Statement of the Problem
Despite the existence of robust regulatory frameworks, corporate governance challenges such as non-compliance, weak accountability, and managerial misconduct persist in Kaduna State. These issues raise concerns about the effectiveness of government regulations in addressing governance-related problems (Ibrahim & Yakubu, 2024). Additionally, businesses often face challenges such as bureaucratic delays, high compliance costs, and unclear guidelines, further complicating governance practices.
