Why Corporate Governance is important to EBRD EBRD is biggest investor in region (€2 bn plus); EBRD is always a MINORITY investor; EBRD’s exits from investments crucially depend on new investors being comfortable with legal environment; EBRD believes that good policy framework and active corporate governance is critical to the transition; Major victims of poor corporate governance are the countries themselves and their citizens.
