BEYOND THE CRISIS - NEW CHALLENGES FOR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

On 3 December 2009, in conjunction with the Swedish EU Presidency during the second half of 2009, the Swedish Corporate Governance Board and the European Corporate Governance Institute will host the 8th European Corporate Governance Conference in Stockholm, Sweden. A welcome reception will be held on the evening of 2 December.

In the first morning session, Mr Jean-Nicolas Caprasse of the RiskMetrics Group will make the first public presentation of the findings of a major study on monitoring and enforcement mechanisms in corporate governance in the EU Member States. The study was commissioned by the European Commission and carried out by a consortium led by RiskMetrics. Mr Pierre Delsaux of the European Commission will comment on the findings, and their ramifications for the future of corporate governance regulation in the EU will be assessed by a roundtable panel of experts with backgrounds in different jurisdictions and corporate governance traditions in the European Union.
