Abstract

This chapter is a survey on papers reporting different results regarding the importance of bank boards for corporate governance in a highly regulated industry. The analysis focuses on three variables related to bank boards, namely, their size, composition, and the trade-offs effected within them. Furthermore, a descriptive analysis is carried out of boards of directors in European banks with regard to these variables and their evolution at two specific times, before and after the financial crisis.
