By contrast, other scholars argue that private remedies should be strengthened to enforce corporate governance standards at banks. 5 Many propose improving banks’ accountability and efficiency of operations by increasing the legal duties that bank directors and senior management owe to depositors and other creditors. This would involve expanding the scope of fiduciary duties beyond shareholders to include depositors and creditors. 6 Under this approach, depositors and other creditors could sue the board of directors for breach of fiduciary duties and the standard of care, in addition to whatever contractual claims they may have. This would increase banks. | Public Citizen Will the World own Water Privatization in a Climate . of rotest Will the World Bank Back Down Water Privatization in a Climate of Global Protest A special report by Public Citizen s Water for All program Sara Grusky and Maj Fiil-Flynn Photograph by Maj Fiil-Flynn April 2004 2004 Public Citizen.
