In the Global Research Seminar “Comparative Corporate Governance and Financial Regulation,” Penn Law students examined corporate governance and financial regulation from a global perspective. Designed and taught by Penn Law professor Jill Fisch and Goethe University professor Brigitte Haar, the year-long course titled “Comparative Corporate Governance and Financial Regulation” paired U.S. and German students, who wrote original research papers comparing specific corporate governance issues in the United States and Germany. The joint research papers prepared by the students are featured here.
