Abstract Text Swiss issuers and institutional investors were asked in a survey about their preferences and opinions on chosen topics in corporate governance. The survey included questions regarding voting rights, compensation, board of directors and payout, as well as other current topics. The focus of this work is set upon topics related to the composition and organization of the board of directors, and the exercise of shareholder's voting rights. The results of the different groups of participants are compared with each other and with previous surveys. The opinions among participants seem to differ on certain topics, while being fairly similar on others.
