This research tries to find out whether companies international presence in terms of companies conducting their operations in countries other than their own has an impact on the corporate governance practices being followed by the companies and does it motivate them to adopt better practices and a higher quality of governance, by conducting a study on a sample of companies listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET).
