Speech of Hans-Martin Buhlmann, AGM 2015 of Adidas AG, 7. Mai 2015 in Fürth, (D)
V I P’s activity
VIP engages actively in the public debate on Corporate
Governance, at both national and international level. VIP stands up.
specifically for the interests of shareholders, whom it calls on effectively
and
efficiently to exercise the rights and duties the system gives them.
Active participation and involvement in the annual general meetings of
the issuing companies, the legally provided place for
transparent confrontation betweeen management and capital owners,
is the fundamental requirement here.
