ABSTRACT: Economic policies, ranging from fiscal reforms to monetary adjustments and regulatory interventions, directly influence how corporations design their governance structures and manage risks. Strong governance frameworks and proactive risk management practices are essential for organizational sustainability in a volatile global economy. This paper critically examines the interplay between economic policies, corporate governance, and risk management. It evaluates how taxation, interest rates, capital controls, and regulatory compliance affect board accountability, transparency, and enterprise risk frameworks. Furthermore, it highlights challenges such as policy uncertainty, global interconnectedness, and compliance costs that corporations must navigate. The discussion emphasizes the importance of adaptive strategies to align governance and risk management with shifting economic policies, ensuring both resilience and long-term competitiveness.
