The Shareholder Rights Directive (SRD) should be made a regulation rather than remaining as a directive, according to a panellist at this year’s CorpActions conference in London.

It has been a busy month for Société Générale, with its securities services division winning four transfer agency mandates in as many weeks. Its Italian division signed three agreements: AllianceBernstein Sicav and AllianceBernstein FCP, Aberdeen Global and Aberdeen Global II funds, and Mantex Sicav, a Luxembourg-registered open-ended collective investment fund.
