On October 31, 2024, a corporate governance forum was held in Moscow, organized by the Moscow Exchange.
The forum brought together more than 500 participants and guests of the event, who represented over 300 companies.
The panel discussions featured representatives of the Bank of Russia, the Ministry of Finance, the Moscow Exchange, major Russian issuers, investors, professional communities, as well as corporate secretaries and recognized experts in this field.
The leitmotif of the forum was the challenges that the corporate governance system of companies has to face in the process of their IPO and in their further activities. The participants of the discussions considered the importance of corporate governance, including the role of information disclosure for the formation and development of capital markets in modern conditions. The speakers touched upon the topics of improving this system as a key element in increasing trust in financial markets, as well as ensuring the protection of the rights and interests of shareholders.
Particular attention was paid to the significance of the Corporate Governance Code adopted ten years ago and its impact on strengthening the system of relationships between management, the board of directors, shareholders of the company and other stakeholders. The forum participants discussed how this document contributes to increasing the transparency and efficiency of public companies, whether it should be amended and what prospects await its development in the future.
Elena Kuritsyna, Senior Managing Director for Issuer and Government Relations at Moscow Exchange:
“I am glad that the forum has become a space for constructive and open dialogue between representatives of government agencies, the regulator, business and the expert community. I am confident that its results will be used both for sharing experiences and developing effective solutions for interaction between issuers and investors, and for further improvement of legislation and corporate governance practices. I would like to thank all participants and guests of the forum for their active participation and contribution to the discussion of the most important issues of corporate governance development in Russia.”
At the end of the forum, a ceremonial ceremony took place award ceremony winners of the XXVII annual annual report competition.
