At the General meeting of the European Federation of Investors and Financial Services Users (BETTER FINANCE) which took place last week in Athens, the VZMD President, Mr. Kristjan Verbič, was elected into the Executive board of this influential European association for the fifth mandate. The association brings together almost 5 million individual investors and 40 national associations of shareholders and investors. The voting meeting was followed by an inaugural session of the Executive board immediately after, which named Jella Benner-Heinacher, currently the director of the German Investors' Association (DSW), as President of BETTER FINANCE, while Axel Kleinlein of the German association Bund der Versicherten (BdV) and the incumbent president of BETTER FINANCE, Jean Berthon of the French association FAIDER, became Vice-Presidents of BETTER FINANCE.
