Three examples from corporate governance that will help me in my goal of improving my personal credit history are:

Accountability – This principle of corporate governance is based on the corporate finance theory of risk management. I will ensure to borrow only when required and once I start borrowing in a reasonable manner and cut down on my unnecessary expenses and borrowings it will start reflecting positively on my personal credit history and my credit score as well.
Stewardship - This principle of corporate governance is based on financial theory of fiduciary responsibility. I have the ethical obligation to act in a manner that will ensure financial stability for me. Just like in a company managers are fiduciary responsible for investments made by stockholders I will be fiduciary responsible for my own money. Hence by better taking care of my assets and expenses I will be able to improve my credit history and score as well.
Measurement – This aspect will focus on constant evaluation of my finances. By setting tangible and measurable financial goals for myself I will be better able to manage my earnings and balance it with my expenses. Budgeting will be a good tool that I can use here.
