The Companies Circle is a unique initiative launched in 2005 in São Paulo, Brazil on the recommendation of the Latin American Corporate Governance Roundtable, with support from the OECD, the International Finance Corporation and the Global Corporate Governance Forum. It brings together a group of Latin American companies who have adopted good corporate governance practices in order to provide private sector input into the work of the Roundtable; and to share with each other and the public their experiences in an action plan to showcase how leading Latin American companies can implement good corporate governance, and the benefits their firms have experienced from undertaking these improvements.
