The relationship between comparative law and the field of economics is increasingly
important, but controversial. Economists have drawn from comparative law scholarship to
suggest that common law systems may be more conducive to financial and economic
development than civil law systems (Garoupa & Pargendler, 2014). Comparative law and

countries. Corporate governance, i.e. the system by which companies are directed and
controlled, has become a key topic for legislation, practice and academia in all modern
industrial states. The financial crisis has highlighted the problems. Yet one goes astray if one
does not understand how the unique combination of economic, legal and social determinants

framework.

Becht et al. (2007) conducted a survey on the main mechanisms of corporate law and
governance, discussed the main legal and regulatory institutions in different countries, and
examined the comparative governance literature. Corporate governance is concerned with the

the various legal frameworks adopted by different regulatory bodies of the BRICS nations so
as to provide valuable insights about the topic of research. Furthermore, the study will be
based on the analysis of corporate governance in the viewpoint of comparative law and
economic analysis. The study will utilise data collected from various governmental reports
and previous literature so as to comparatively analyse the enforcement practices for corporate
governance adopted by the different BRICS nations. The role of BRICS nation in the global
