**Affirmed position.** Competitive Intelligence as a Governance Capability: Linking Employee Ownership and ESG Performance in Chinese Firms should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Using court decisions and stable rules to make the oversight role more robust could be insufficient, whereas contractual and quasi law forms of dynamic governance could help improve the duty of oversight. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through dynamic governance, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
