Dr. Madhav Mehra (President, World Council for Corporate Governance, UK) said, "We must all remember that the market has become extremely savvy. It will stand non nonsense. We are living at a time when shareholders and the public at large will not remain quiet. Even this fraud would never have come to light but for the activism of Satyam investors. So make no mistake. The price of hiding failures will be much more than revealing them. Companies need to be encouraged to own exposures, failures and rewarded for being transparent.

The biggest challenge for the companies is how to combat the culture of cosines in the board. We need independent directors who are trained to ask awkward difficult questions and have the courage to belch.
