Summary
The purpose of the Code is to define in more detail the principles of directing and managing public joint-stock companies, whose shares are listed on the regulated market. The recommended practices should be applied also by other public and non-public companies, so that a transparent and understandable governance system is set up in Slovenia, which will promote the confidence of domestic and foreign investors, of employees and the general public in the Slovene two-tier system of governing public companies. The Code's provisions summarise the relevant laws, indicate recommended conduct practices for public companies' bodies and bridge the gap between their existing and the future legal regulation.
