It develops a network-governance account of distributed corporate misconduct and identifies the governance capability required to interrupt it without restoring indiscriminate pre-entry control. Design/methodology/approach: The study uses an archival, theory-elaborating case design centred on the Van Thinh Phat-Saigon Commercial Bank scandal in Vietnam. Judicial materials, legislation, official investigation and trial records, and authoritative reporting are analysed as governance episodes. Functional comparison with the United Kingdom, Singapore and Australia identifies alternative identity-assurance, intermediary and traceability mechanisms. Findings: Five governance misalignments transformed entity-level controls into a network-level vulnerability: an entity-risk mismatch, disconnected data, diffused escalation responsibility, assurance cascades and repeated non-intervention. The article develops ethical interruption capacity as a five-dimensional governance capability combining cross-entity information, normative recognition, authority, independence and timely response. It proposes relational screening and graduated intervention for high-risk corporate formations. Originality/value: The article extends corporate governance beyond the focal firm by showing how corporate-regulatory ecosystems can circulate legitimacy while diffusing accountability. It extends gatekeeper theory from the existence of a designated reviewer to the capabilities needed to recognise and halt network-level misconduct, and offers a practical model for allocating preventive responsibility among registries, boards, banks, professionals and regulators.

The study maps the conceptual structure on startup success factors. For the purpose, dimensions database was scrutinized for identifying the publication on concerned area. The keyword used for the bibliometric analysis was (“startup success”) OR (“Startup * success factors”). A total of 1617 publication was found in the dimensions database on the concerned area which is further screened to get the appropriate papers for the study. Software Rstudio and Biblioshiny was used to analyse the articles-annual publication, countries, author, most cited documents, sources, affiliating institutions, themes, collaboration network of authors. We analysed research on startup success from 1981 to 2025. It was found that startup success was studied from 1988 onwards but its study became popular from 2019 which is increasing year by year. According to Bradford’s Law, Sustainability journal has been ranked first. For success of a startup understanding the factors helping startups in achieving competitive advantage is quite significant some factors identified were support, innovation, strategic, management, investment, market, ecosystem, digital, technology. The Co-occurrence network in the study shows sustainability of startups has been scarcely studied thus future studies can be done on it taking a geographical area in concern. Also, studies can be done on literature review, sustainability, impact and factors influencing success of startups. This paper provides insights for new startup founders, academicians and policymakers to make informed decisions. Copyright (c)
