Position on EU Commission's proposal on Shareholders' Rights Directive (in German)

Deutsches Aktieninstituts welcomes the idea of promoting shareholders' engagement. However, the proposal of the EU Commission goes too far especially concerning the regulation on related parties' transactions.

Furthermore Deutsches Aktieninstituts is against a binding vote of the general meeting on remuneration policy. It also asks for appropriate regulation on questions of shareholders' identification and of transparency of proxy advisors.
