Rules 1.1-1.3 of the Swedish Corporate Governance Code contain requirements regarding advance notice of the date of the shareholders’ meeting, the attendance of members of the company board at the shareholders’ meeting and AGM and the preparation of proposals for the chair of the board at the AGM. Due to the measures currently being implemented to limit the spread of the virus that causes covid-19, which include travel restrictions and measures to limit the size of public gatherings, the Swedish Corporate Governance Board has been asked how the above Code rules are to be applied during the 2020 AGM season.
