Canadian Coalition for Good Governance Recognizes Canada's Leaders in Corporate Disclosure
Shareholders are finding out more
about the directors of the companies they own, according to the Canadian
Coalition for Good Governance. To recognize the leaders in this new era of
corporate disclosure the Coalition introduced its first award, the Golden
Gavel.
"The Coalition is strongly focused on the importance of transparency and
exceptional disclosure because this is the only window that shareholders have
into the boardroom", said Michael Wilson, Chairman of the Canadian Coalition
for Good Governance. "This new annual award recognizes the leaders in
communication of director information to shareholders and this year's winners
have set new levels of best practices in many areas of director disclosure".
The overall 2005 winner is Nexen, followed by honourable mentions for
Canadian Pacific Railway, Enbridge and TD Bank Financial Group.
