Summary
This chapter surveys the reporting obligations of corporate boards with respect to their engagement with shareholders under the corporate governance codes of eleven European jurisdictions. It compares the different approaches under these instruments to board-shareholder engagement within and outside of the shareholder meeting and discusses the benefits of well formulated corporate policies on shareholder engagement for a more effective board-shareholder dialogue and facilitation of effective stewardship by institutional investors and asset managers.
