European Corporate Governance

The European Corporate Governance Forum was set up by the Commission in October 2004. It is a committee of 15 members meeting every 4-6 months. Its objectives are to examine best practice in EU Member States with a view to facilitate convergence of national corporate governance codes, and to provide strategic advice to the Commission. The UK members of the Forum are Peter Montagnon, Director of Investment Affairs, Association of British Insurers and Alastair Ross Goobey, Chair of the Shareholder Rights Committee, International Corporate Governance Network.
