The HVS Executive Search annual review of corporate governance practices at European hotel companies sees Rezidor take top honours. As corporations have come under increased public scrutiny in the economic downturn so too have boards come under heightened pressure to govern in a responsible manner.

Scandals over topics such as pay show that, despite the huge advances made by most companies over the past few years, corporate governance remains a hot topic and worthy of analysis.
