Abstract
Governance architectures in state-owned enterprises (SOEs) play a crucial role in ensuring effective management and accountability within these institutions. In Zambia, SOEs are significant components of its economic landscape, often serving as engines for growth and employment. The approach is conceptual rather than empirical, drawing on existing literature and theories related to corporate governance. The focus is on identifying key themes and mechanisms that underpin effective governance within the Zambian context. This theoretical construct provides a foundational understanding for future research and policy development aimed at improving governance within Zambian SOEs. Theoretical insights suggest the need for more robust regulatory frameworks and increased transparency in decision-making processes to enhance accountability and efficiency in Zambian SOEs.
