Conference call for members on Sudan Accountability and Divestment Act of 2007 Printer Friendly Version

On Dec. 31, 2007, President Bush signed into law the Sudan Accountability and Divestment Act, which authorizes state and local governments to divest from companies doing business in certain sectors in Sudan. The Council hosted a conference call, for members only, to discuss the implications of the act for institutional investors and the status of the divestment movement.  Adam Sterling, director of the Sudan Divestment Task Force, and Ian Lanoff, a principal in the Groom Law Group, were the key speakers.
