  7. Abstract:
  8. This study examines the impact of Corporate Governance on the survival of firms. The main goal in this research is to find the most important factors of Corporate Governance affecting the survival of a firm. Research method is qualitative. Survival is binary. It means whether a firm is alive or bankrupt. All samples used in this research are alive, but they are different in the extent they hope to be alive. So, first of all the criteria that estimate the hope of survival of a firm are defined using the literature of survival. In the next step, some firms are selected that are different in the extent they hope to survive. Next, these firms are compared in their quality of Corporate Governance. According to this comparison, first the differences in Corporate Governance between firms that hope more to survive with those that hope less are highlighted and after that a pattern of good Corporate Governance is proposed. The results show that firms with higher chance of survival are different with firms with lower chance of survival in three aspects of Corporate Governance being discipline, transparency and accountability. It is important to note that the results of this study cannot be generalized because only 9 samples are studied. For the matter it is required to do the research using a large number of samples
