Povzetek

In the master’s thesis we researched corporate governance and the quality of corporate governance. Corporate governance and management of organizations stem from the need and the desire for the existence and development of an organization. It is necessary to establish certain kind of monitoring and controlling in organizations, which we define with the term “corporate governance”. Corporate governance is the system of regulating and controlling corporate conduct and of balancing interests of all shareholders and other stakeholders to which company has influence. The interests of directors and shareholders may be in contrast. The purpose of corporate governance is to find a way to satisfy the interest of both, the board of directors and the shareholders, and at the same time to create long-team and sustainable growth for the company. Corporate governance is extremely important for individual organizations and, consequently, for their business. Compering different organizations, their corporate governance is done in different ways. Corporate governance in developed countries and leading economies is certainly different than in smaller and less developed countries. In this case, arises a question what kind of corporate governance can be labelled as “good” or “first-class” corporate governance. In order to improve corporate governance practices, various legal regulations and other forms of binding and less binding rules, recommendations, codes and standards have been developed. Quality is extremely important for organizations, therefore several methods, methodologies and indexes for measuring the quality of corporate governance have been developed. The purpose of methods is to evaluate and compare the quality of corporate governance between individual companies and between different countries. The results can serve for developing measures to improve corporate governance practices. At the same time, findings can serve to modify and supplement existing legislation and recommendations. The corporate governance index, as a measure of the quality of corporate governance processes, can also be one of the important indicators of the company's potential in order to access to new sources of capital and to reduce the capital´s costs in comparison with other companies. The main purpose of the master's thesis is to study corporate governance and its impact on the business of Slovenian and German telecommunication companies. We make comparison between following companies: Telekom Slovenije, d.d., A1 Slovenija, d.d., Deutsche Telekom AG and Telefónica Deutschland Holding AG. The quality of corporate governance in selected companies was measured with the SEECGAN methodology and index. The methodology was designed to measure the quality of corporate governance. It ensures transparency and provides a structured overview of the main areas of corporate governance between different companies. In empirical part of master’s thesis, we found out that Telekom Slovenije, d.d. has "first-class" quality of corporate governance, A1 Slovenia, d.d. has a "good" quality of corporate governance, Deutsche Telekom AG has a "first-class" quality of corporate governance and Telefónica Deutschland Holding AG has a "good" quality of corporate governance. We found out that both countries have companies with “first-class” and “good” corporate governance. The quality of corporate governance is not related to the national origin or country of operation of the company. One of the main finding of the analysis is that there are no significant differences between the quality of corporate governance in specific areas of SEECGAN index in Slovenian and German companies.

Sekundarni povzetek:	V magistrskem delu obravnavamo korporativno upravljanje in kakovost korporativnega upravljanja v organizacijah. Organizacije ne morejo biti uspešne, če nimajo pravilno postavljene vizije in politike podjetja, menedžmenta in vodstvenih funkcij ter primernega strateškega in izvedbenega menedžmenta. Upravljanje in vodenja podjetja ter korporativno upravljanje izhajajo iz potrebe in želje organizacij po njenem obstoju ter razvoju. V organizacijah je treba vzpostaviti določeno vrsto nadzora in kontrolinga, kar lahko označimo z izrazom »korporativno upravljanje«. Korporativno upravljanje je izjemno pomembno za posamezne organizacije in posledično za njihovo poslovanje. Organizacije se upravljajo na različne načine. Korporativno upravljanje v razvitih državah in vodilnih gospodarskih silah je zagotovo drugačno kot v manjših in manj razvitih državah. Pojavi se vprašanje, kakšno korporativnega upravljanja je mogoče označiti kot „dobro“. Poznamo različne vrste upravljanja glede na obravnavanje interesa deležnikov organizacije. Države, kot sta Združeno kraljestvo in Združene države Amerike, postavljajo v ospredje interes lastnikov in delničarjev organizacije, medtem ko v nekaterih drugih državah, npr. državah kontinentalne Evrope, postavljajo v ospredje interese drugih deležnikov organizacije, kot so zaposleni, kupci, dobavitelji, finančne institucije, predstavniki lokalnih in državnih organov, sindikati ter lokalna skupnost. Sistem korporativnega upravljanja, ki maksimira koristi za lastnike, ni enak sistemu, ki maksimira koristi za vse udeležence. Za izboljšanje korporativnega upravljanja so bili razviti različni pravni predpisi in druge oblike zavezujočih in manj zavezujočih pravil, priporočil, kodeksov in standardov. Kakovost je izrednega pomena za organizacije, zato so bile razvite številne metode in metodologije za merjenje kakovosti korporativnega upravljanja. Namen tovrstnih metod je oceniti in primerjati kakovost korporativnega upravljanja med posameznimi podjetji in med različnimi državami. Rezultati lahko služijo za oblikovanje ukrepov za izboljšanje praks upravljanja podjetij. Hkrati pa lahko ugotovitve služijo za spremembo in dopolnitev obstoječe zakonodaje ter priporočil. Namen magistrskega dela je preučiti korporativno upravljanje in njegov vpliv na poslovanje organizacij. Primerjamo korporativno upravljanje slovenskih in nemških telekomunikacijskih organizacij. Podjetja, ki jih obravnavamo, so Telekom Slovenije, d. d., A1 Slovenija, d. d., Deutsche Telekom AG in Telefónica Deutschland Holding AG.
