The World Bank, or rather its Centre for Financial Reporting Reform (CFRR) held a very important international conference in Bucharest yesterday, titled "The Audit Committee: the keystone of the financial reporting and audit process – from policy to practice". Mr Kristjan Verbič, President of PanSlovenian Shareholders' Association (VZMD), also participated (link to the presentation) in the conference as an invited speaker and representative of the European Federation of Financial Services Users (EuroFinUse), where he acts as a member of the Board.

On this occasion Mr Verbič presented to the public for the first time the VIDEO REPORT from the international conference EuroFinUse "The Audit Reform - Impact on Investors", which took place in the European Parliament.
