The Index is based on data from 100 of the country’s largest corporations listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchanges (50 AEX- and AMX-corporations and 50 additional smaller corporations). The Index is based on data obtained from annual financial reports published between 1987 and 2000. Board information in the Index is also culled from corporations’ 1998-1999 compliance reports with respect to the forty recommendations of the Peters Committee, corporations’ investor relation pages on the Internet and other publicly accessible data.
The Board Index is written in co-operation with the Corporate Governance Research Centre of the Department of Strategic Management and Business Environment, Faculty of Business Administration at Erasmus University in the Netherlands.
Information on the composition of Supervisory and Management Boards in this Index usually reflects the situation as of November 1, 1999. Information on the structure and meetings of Managing and Supervisory Boards and the compensation of Supervisory Directors is based on l1999 annual reports. A total of 80 corporations verified the information in this year’s Index.
