The main aim of this study is to approach the basic principles related to corporate governance and their role in the organizational and functional structure of a shipping company. The concept of the corporate yield and the financial development are solidly linked with the existence of effective systems in corporate governance which have been proved to be in direct contact with the financial results as they are well known by the term “financial indices”. Special reference has been made on the problems and the internal conflict of that exists between the different groups which are involved in all levels of management. The globalization and the rapidly changing competitive corporate governance as it has been reported by the principles set by OECD suggest respect to the shareholders and the society as well as transparency and reliability to the administration of the corporations. The study aims to respond to the inquiry whether the shipping industry has already applied some of the important principles of OECD and if this application has affected the financial indices positively.
