Transparency and compliance: Masterclass by Prof Archishman Chakraborty

Prof Archishman Chakraborty examines how control over information flows can undermine transparency and reshape stakeholder influence in corporate governance.

  • 14 Oct 2025, 2.15pm to 3.05pm BST (GMT +01:00)
  • Room 3.5, 3 East, University of Bath
  • This event is free

In this masterclass, Professor Archishman Chakraborty (Yeshiva University) will investigate how increased stakeholder representation on corporate boards, often proposed as a corrective to shareholder primacy, intersects with the limits of transparency as a tool for reducing bias.

Drawing on examples from corporations, universities, and government bodies, he’ll explore how committees can strategically control information flows to neutralise the effects of transparency, monitoring, and surveillance and achieve compliance without secrecy or encryption.

The talk considers the implications of these dynamics for institutional governance and accountability.
