'Reinventing the control based European corporate governance system?'

 

2 June (Tuesday) 2009, Rotterdam
Erasmus Institute Monitoring & Compliance

Sponsored by KPMG

  

Just a few decades ago, blockholding in public firms was claimed to be superior to the dispersed ownership because of the larger control possibilities concentrated owners have to discipline managers. More recently, in contrast, the control based (continental) European corporate governance regime was seen as an intermediary phase in an inevitable global convergence on the dispersed ownership structures of the US and the UK; one in which the separation of ownership and control had not yet fully materialized because of legal and other institutional deficiencies. In the wake of the worst financial crisis we have had for almost a century, some are now advocating a more relational corporate governance system, in which institutional shareholders hold relatively large positions in a relatively small portfolio of public firms, and are actively involved in controlling the company. This change of intellectual moods on the presumed costs and benefits of block holding in Europe raise the question in what direction the control based European corporate governance system should develop.

 

The symposium invites speakers to give a presentation on where they think the continental European corporate governance system should be heading. It features renowned scholars and practitioners in the field who will give argued reflections on the future of the European corporate governance system. The symposium is organized to serve the interests of practitioners like lawyers, accountants, consultants, executives, academics, policy specialists and everyone who is interested in corporate governance. Its ambition – and that of the Erasmus Institute Monitoring & Compliance in general – is to facilitate the mutual intellectual exchange between academics, professionals and executives in novel and emerging fields of knowledge.
