Could Vale Improve Its Transparency?

Vale (VALE) has come a long way in its corporate governance policies and transparency. The corporate restructuring was concluded in August 2017, when Valepar was merged into Vale. This move was seen as a major governance overhaul, as it will enhance transparency and equal rights for all shareholders and reduce the potential for government interference. These steps were seen as positive by investors and the company’s stock price rose in reaction to the restructuring announcement.
