NEWS Proposal to Appoint Fugro Supervisory Board Member The Supervisory Board of Fugro N.V. proposes to recommend to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Fugro N.V on 7 May 2009, the appointment of Mrs. Marion Helmes as a member of the Supervisory Board. Mrs. Helmes will succeed Mr. P.J. Crawford who will step down from the Supervisory Board having reached the maximum period of three terms of four years. Mrs. Helmes has German nationality and was born in 1965. Currently she is a member of the Executive Board and CFO of ThyssenKrupp Elevator AG at Düsseldorf. After her studies Mrs. Helmes began her career at the Treuhandanstalt Berlin within the framework of reorganisation and re-/privatisation. Subsequently she was active for an international consultancy company. In 1997 she moved to Fried. Krupp AG Hoesch-Krupp in Essen and was active in the area of Financial Control and Mergers & Acquisitions. Following the merger with Thyssen AG she moved in 2000 to the Budd Company in Troy, USA as Vice President Corporate Development. In 2003 she took over the responsibility for Corporate Mergers & Acquisitions at ThyssenKrupp AG in Düsseldorf. In 2005 Mrs. Helmes was appointed to the Executive Board and CFO of ThyssenKrupp Stainless AG, Duisburg. The Supervisory Board considers the appointment of Mrs. Helmes to be in the interest of Fugro in view of her industry knowledge and her experience in general and financial management. When a new supervisory director is recommended for appointment the Supervisory Board primarily takes into account the expertise, experience and independence of the candidate. The Supervisory Board is pleased that this appointment also fulfils the wish for a more diverse composition of the Supervisory Board in terms of such factors as gender and age. If Mrs. Helmes is appointed as Supervisory Director she will be a member of the Audit Committee of Fugro N.V. https://www.gim-international.com/content/news/proposal-to-appoint-fugro-supervisory-board-member.

Nazi Privatization in 1930S Germany1 by GERMÀ BEL
Economic History Review (2009) Against the mainstream: Nazi privatization in 1930s Germany1 By GERMÀ BEL Nationalization was particularly important in the early 1930s in Germany.The state took over a large industrial concern, large commercial banks, and other minor firms. In the mid-1930s, the Nazi regime transferred public ownership to the private sector. In doing so, they went against the mainstream trends in western capitalistic countries, none of which systematically reprivatized firms during the 1930s. Privatization was used as a political tool to enhance support for the government and for the Nazi Party. In addition, growing financial restrictions because of the cost of the rearmament programme provided additional motivations for privatization. rivatization of large parts of the public sector was one of the defining policies Pof the last quarter of the twentieth century. Most scholars have understood privatization as the transfer of government-owned firms and assets to the private sector,2 as well as the delegation to the private sector of the delivery of services previously delivered by the public sector.3 Other scholars have adopted a much broader meaning of privatization, including (besides transfer of public assets and delegation of public services) deregulation, as well as the private funding of services previously delivered without charging the users.4 In any case, modern privatization has been usually accompanied by the removal of state direction and a reliance on the free market. Thus, privatization and market liberalization have usually gone together. Privatizations in Chile and the UK, which began to be implemented in the 1970s and 1980s, are usually considered the first privatization policies in modern history.5 A few researchers have found earlier instances.
