Getting involved in our initiatives and activities

The purpose of the Working Group is to facilitate the implementation of the Corporate Governance Development Framework Agreement or any future Agreement the Signatories may decide to agree upon in relation to cooperation on corporate governance.

More specifically, the Working Group is tasked to:

• Organize an annual conference in which Signatories gather to share experience and foster communication,
• Facilitate the annual reporting about progress in the implementation of the Framework, and
• Perform other tasks the Signatories may deem useful or provide specific assignments for.

The Working Group is currently composed of nine institutions, namely Asian Development Bank (ADB),  Black Sea Trade and Development Bank (BSTDB), CAF – Development Bank of Latin America (CAF), CDC Group (CDC), DEG – Deutsche Investitions-und Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH (DEG), the Dutch Development Bank (FMO), International Finance Corporation (IFC), IDB Invest, and Proparco Groupe AFD (PROPARCO).
