The Business Roundtable recommends five principles for fair and respectful treatment of shareowners and their views.
1. Public companies should have procedures for shareholders to communicate with the board and for directors to respond to shareholders’ concerns. Traditionally, shareholders have raised their concerns with management, particularly COE. Often their concerns were ignored or not addressed appropriately. Corporate governance reforms in the post-Sarbanes-Oxley era enable shareholders to communicate their concerns with independent directors.
Have shareholders of major corporations really experienced or seen a change in corporate governance post Sarbanes Oxely?2. A corporation’s relationship with its shareholders should be characterized by candor.All communications with shareholders should be consistent, fair, transparent, clear, and candid.Are corporations as transparent as they should be? Is there any research to show an improvement in communication with shareholders and corporations post SOX?
