Does AFIG always insist on having a seat at the Board of Directors of its portfolio companies ?
AFIG’s objective is to combine financial contribution and assistance in the fulfillment of its portfolio companies’ expansion plans. The best way to achieve this goal and to demonstrate a genuine involvement in the future of the company is for AFIG to have board representation. While respecting management operational independence, AFIG wants to be involved in the set-up of business objectives and strategy, as well as performance indicators. AFIG’s priority is to create long term value and therefore beyond a simple representation in the capital of the company.
