State Ownership

Flytoget

The state is concerned with exercising good corporate governance, including organising state ownership such that the state’s different roles are clearly delineated and that there is transparency with respect to the management of state-ownership. A better division between the state’s ownership role and the different roles of the authorities is an element in this. All together ministries manage state ownership interests in 80 companies.
