The quality of implementing corporate governance standards was comparatively assessed in eight Russian companies. It was checked the implementation of 91 norms, which were grouped into four levels of corporate governance (initial, improved, developed, leadership). Quantitative assessments of the achievement by various large Russian companies of various levels of corporate governance are given.
