Conference on The Nordic Corporate Governance Model


Tuesday, October 22, 2013 - 16:00 to 18:30

Center for Corporate Governance, CBS
Board of Directors Network of Denmark

Date: 22 October, 2013.
Venue: Copenhagen Business School, Porcelænshaven 22, Auditorium RS.20.

The Nordic model – and the Nordic corporate governance model – have become reference points in international policy debates. Nordic governance is seen as being socially responsible,  while maintaining  competitiveness.  But is there – really – a Nordic model? If so, what are its characteristics? Strengths and weaknesses? Can it be replicated in other countries?  Should it be?  We have scholars from each of the Nordic countries and 3 distinguished speaker from the UK, US and Germany to give their views – and will try to come up with some answers!
