BETTER FINANCE welcomes the announcement of the election of Lars-Erik Forsgårdh as the new chairman of the European Confederation of Directors’ Associations (ecoDa).
As former CEO of the Swedish Shareholders´ Association - the Swedish member organisation of BETTER FINANCE - and former Vice-President of Euro Shareholders - merged into BETTER FINANCE in 2010 - Dr Forsgårdh is the right person to foster a better dialogue between shareholders and board members.
In view of the review of the Shareholders’ Rights Directive and the proposals for amendments aimed at tackling corporate governance shortcomings, his extensive experience in these matters will prove crucial.
