The recent financial crisis has once again stressed the importance
of good corporate governance and corporate social responsibility in
building trust in the European internal market. It has given rise
to a discussion of whether a number of issues should be addressed
through regulation or soft law at EU level. These issues relate in
particular to the duties of directors in European companies as well
as how the board of directors is composed and structured. Drawing
attention first to duties of directors and then to the organisation
of the board, this appropriately timed analysis takes stock of the
status of the initiatives that have been debated so far,examines
whether the rules which have been adopted form a coherent system,
and suggests ways in which these initiatives affect national law.
Topics covered include the following: directors' conflicts of
interest; rules on shareholder transparency; duty to promote active
ownership; whether it is possible to find a balance between
corporate enterprise and risk control; integration of environmental
and social concerns in the decision-making of the company; the
board's role as a monitor of management; overcoming managerial
deficiencies; the concept of independent directors; independence
from a controlling shareholder; nomination of board members;
disqualification of directors; and directors duties in groups of
companies.
