United Kingdom | Publication | November 2019
On November 15, 2019, Glass Lewis published its 2020 proxy paper guidelines for the UK (Guidelines). The Guidelines incorporate global corporate governance best practices and are reviewed annually to ensure they remain current with market practice, regulations and the evolving standards of exceptional corporate governance.
The Guidelines update the previous version published in 2018 and make noteworthy revisions in the following areas:
On November 18, 2019, the Council of the EU formally adopted at first reading the proposal for a directive to amend Directive (EU) 2017/1132 as regards cross-border conversions, mergers and divisions.
The directive is in the same form as that adopted at first reading on April 18, 2019, as amended by a corrigendum approved by the Parliament on October 22, 2019.
The directive will enter into force 20 days after its publication in the Official Journal, with member states having 36 months to adopt the measures necessary for its implementation.
