It's not too clear to me and it is a poor question. Agency is the idea that an agent should put the principal first. Whether they do or no is another matter. Here they are not behaving as they should so there is an agency issue Governance is the way companies are controlled and managed. So, here, why has this not been stopped? Good governance should prevent this. Stewardship is the responsibility to take good care of resources - presumably they are being wasted here. Stakeholders: not very relevant here
