Challenges of good governance in closely held companies and alignment of diverging interests
Monday 13 May (1145 - 1230)
Description
Achieving a good corporate governance is a major issue for closely-held companies. Although there is no one formula and the ultimate governance structure depends on the company’s unique circumstances, there are common driving forces and challenges, especially in what concerns family-run businesses. We will have the opportunity to share experiences, views and best practices of our speakers with the participants, with emphasis on crucial topics such as professional managerial structures, ideal succession planning and suitable mechanisms to align shareholders’ interests.
