The European Association of Co-operative Banks (EACB) would like to invite you to its webinar Apropos Coop Banking focusing on
 
Study on membership and governance in European co-operative banks
by Prof. Dr. Hans Groeneveld & Ryan van Hout 
 
on Thursday, 1st July 2021 at 12:30-14:00 (CEST) 
 
After the presentation of the study, four high-level panelists will provide a short statement each on the findings of the study and related matters. This will be followed by a discussion moderated by Nina Schindler, the CEO of EACB.
 
We shall welcome as panelists:
•    Anna Athanasopoulou, EC, DG Grow, Head of Unit
•    Sven Giegold, Member of the European Parliament
•    Prof. Dr. Hans Groeneveld, Tilburg University
•    Prof. Eric Lamarque, Sorbonne University 
 
The study reports a first set of findings of a broad survey carried out by the Task Force on Co-operative Affairs of the EACB on membership and governance in European co-operative banks. The study, based on a broader EACB inquiry among its bank members, demonstrates that also today membership is a living and essential element of the co-operative banking model. With its specific features, the co-operative model delivers important impulses for the discussions on a sustainable and inclusive economy.
