The database GEF / IFGE © is the result of a collaborative work started in 2005. It was designed in order to facilitate and stimulate academic research on corporate governance in France and to disseminate reliable statistics to different stakeholders. It is undoubtedly the richest and the most updated and reliable source available today on corporate governance in France.
