The article discusses the features of corporate governance associated with the distribution of ownership and management functions. The components of corporate governance elements are considered in two directions: from the standpoint of the requirements of the current law; from the position of identifying corporate governance with the overall management system in the enterprise. The necessity of applying a systematic approach to the allocation of management functions is justified and their relationship in the corporate governance system is determined. The authors argue that in analyzing corporate governance, one cannot identify it with the enterprise management system in general and exclude the influence of owners on the corporate governance process. The authors propose from the set of corporate governance functions called the following list of functions arranged according to their priority, ambiguity, essence: planning, organization, accounting, control, analysis, regulation. The article describes the goals of implementing individual corporate governance functions and outlines the relationship of some functions with others. The authors call the features of the implementation of the analytical function associated with the opposite of interests. So, if for the management of the company carrying out analytical calculations should contribute to the scientific justification of management decisions, then carrying out analytical calculations by owners is most often aimed at assessing the effectiveness of the enterprise through the activities of management personnel. It is substantiated that the need to study the analytical subsystem, taking into account the requirements of a system-functional approach, is dictated by the fact that it is a subsystem in the general corporate management system, which has an informational relationship with other functional subsystems and is implemented both by the owners and the management of the enterprise. In the course of the study, it was found that the main feature of corporate governance is associated with the distribution of the overall management system between the enterprise management and its owners. At the same time, certain functions are implemented only by certain corporate governance bodies, while others are inherent to both owners and management.
