LFDE - The 2019 Transparency Grands Prix

On 02 October 2019, the 10th edition of the Transparency Grands Prix rewarded the companies that are champions of transparency. Delivered by Labrador, a consultancy dedicated to regulatory communications, these awards allow issuers to measure their transparency performance each year and identify the best practices in the sector. To mark this 10th ceremony, Labrador presented three new arrays of the Grands Prix de la Transparence, including the Asset Management Grand Prix. This prize should enable investors to recognize the most transparent players according to 4 main criteria (accessibility, accuracy, comparability and availability) in order to provide an effective comparison tool and thus promote the industry best practices.

Labrador and OPCVM 360 focused on the information displayed on the websites of 95 asset management firms authorised by the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) and managing at least one retail fund.

La Financière de l’Echiquier is proud to have won the first Transparency Grand Prix dedicated to Asset Management, alongside companies such as Legrand, L’Oréal, Sopra Steria Group, TF1, Mercialys, Atos…

“This year’s Grands Prix are another opportunity to reward the educational and accessibility efforts made by companies and to measure the road ahead for business information accessible to all. Especially with the dramatic  potential of the deployment of plain language in France.”
