Governance in Government Companies

When Government companies list their shares on stock exchanges, they are required to deal with two distinct constituencies from a corporate governance standpoint: one, being the Government itself as the controlling shareholder or promoter, and the other, being the minority (public) shareholders. When the Government is in a controlling position in the company, the obvious question that arises is whether it is required to act solely with a view to profit maximization, which will in turn benefit t
