Sustainable Finance Summit, London 28 - 29 November 2006
September 20th, 2006
Justin Jones of SmartLogik Action Group will be giving a 20 minute presentation followed by 20 minute Q & A session on:
“Experiences of a Shareholder Action Groupâ€. Without going into too much detail, this will cover why the SmartLogik Action Group was started up. It is suggested that the proliferation of shareholder action groups in the UK is a direct result of the “light touch†regulatory approach that exists, where unscrupulous companies can take advantage of the system. Action Groups are needed to represent the interests of shareholders (esp. the small shareholders), create balance and highlight the importance of good corporate governance. The big mutual funds are needed to ensure that the interests and rights of all investors are safeguarded.
The Sustainable Finance Summit will be held at the Regent’s Park Marriott Hotel, 28 - 29 November 2006. Some 100 - 150 senior executives from banking and finance are expected to attend. See following link for more details and list of speakers:
