Abstract :
Corporate governance has become crucial for companies nowadays to attract investors. Though financial data are relevant for the investors to decide about in which company to invest in, Corporate governance disclosures are also looked upon by them. The adherence to good corporate governance reflects the virtuous management of the company. The purpose of this study is to know the perception of the individuals towards corporate governance and to know whether their investment decisions have been influenced by the extent of the corporate governance framework adopted by the company. This is a Questionnaire survey-based study undertaken through the circulation of Google forms to 150 individuals out of which 72 responded. The relevant hypotheses have been tested through the Chi-Square test of independence. A significant relationship has been found between the selection of investment in shares of the company adopting corporate governance with the opinion of the investor that adoption of CG could enhance transparency, accountability, shareholders value, the responsibility of the Board of directors, and internal control exercised in the company. Therefore, it has been recommended for the companies to improve their corporate governance disclosures as investors have become profound towards investment decision making.

Name : Sustainability of Cryptocurrency in Blockchain Technology for a Banking System in Asian Countries
Author : Alcides Bernardo Tello,Anderson Daniel Torres Bernardo,Josue Canchari de la Cruz,Shuyuan Yang
Abstract :
Objective:The Aim of this paper is to analyze the suitability of digital currencies and blockchain innovation for getting monetary exchanges in Asian nations. A new understanding of money has arisen in the wake of the global economic crisis caused by the subprime mortgage crisis. It is entirely digital money, and all transactions take place across a decentralized network. Methods:This algorithm-encrypted currency is dependent on a dispersed network called the Blockchain and is said to be tamper-proof, transparent, and inclusive. Exchanges in blockchain innovation are amassed inside the chain of blocks, rather than customary registers, which paginate and consecutively record processes. Since it is replicated over numerous geographical locations all over the world, it is decentralized. Results:We suggest adding the Proof of Work idea to the SimBlock test system to spread out additional specific measurements roughly the block shape at the blockchain local area, in between one block and some other, to portray the hour of the mining system, and to show the hashing cost made.
