The year of corporate governance
As 2007 is coming to an end, the year could be described as that of corporate governance due to the popularity and dimension of corporate governance in company investor relations. In short, there is no example that illustrates this better than one full page advertisement that appeared in the FT of october 17 captioned "Open letter to the shareholders of HSBC PL." Which we can describe as a lacerating critic of the management of HSBC, by an institutional investor if we remember that, Knight Vinke Asset Management sent a petition to prime minister dominique de villepin on the fusion of gdf-gdf.

Smoking
The pressure group droit des non furmeurs inserted an advertisement in the 11 december issue of Direct Soir. The ad is illustrated with the photo of a boy smoking a stick of cigarette on the other end of the filter with this headline: non smokers are on the worst side of smoking. With this sign off message there are 4000 chemical elements in a cigarette and 5o of these elements can cause the cancer. The advertisement is very simple and the message is penetrating.
