by Christian OffenhammerDer Autor beschreibt die Grundlagen des Audit Committees als Ausschuss des Verwaltungsrats einer Aktiengesellschaft. Ausgehend von der weltweiten Konvergenz der Führungs- und Kontrollsysteme werden die Corporate-Governance-Kodizes als maßgebliche Treiber der Einrichtung und Ausgestaltung von Audit Committees identifiziert.
