Abstract

This study examines the responsibilities and liabilities of directors and commissioners in Indonesian Private Companies, focusing on implementing corporate governance principles. Quantitative data indicates a consistent increase in compliance with commissioners recommendations, rising from 72% in 2020 to 85% in 2023, alongside a notable decline in litigation cases and a substantial rise in training expenditures. Qualitative analysis using NVivo reveals dominant themes such as the enforcement of fiduciary duties and effective governance implementation, although challenges remain in risk mitigation and oversight consistency. The findings highlight the positive impact of enhanced training and risk management on reducing legal disputes and improving governance quality. The study concludes with recommendations for strengthening supervisory mechanisms, continuous education, and adopting advanced risk management systems to ensure sustainable corporate governance. These insights contribute significantly to the discourse on governance accountability in emerging markets, offering practical implications for regulatory bodies and stakeholders seeking to enhance corporate transparency and accountability in Indonesia.
