Statement of the Chairman of the Board
Rolandas Valiūnas
Dear colleagues,
I am certain that life is deemed meaningful, valuable, and exciting as long as we are able to experience sincere amazement. And in the recent year I had lots of opportunities to experience it. Not only because 2020 has become a year of unprecedented trials for all of us. But first and foremost because of how we were able to meet, adapt, and overcome these challenges.
The association Investors’ Forum, which brings together the largest and most active investors into the Lithuanian economy, agrees with the initiative by the ruling coalition’s representatives in the Lithuanian Seimas to legalize partnerships. Investors emphasize that this step would help ensure legal protection of all couples who are not related biologically and are looking to build a life together. Investors’ Forum also believes that legalizing partnerships would significantly contribute to supporting human rights in Lithuania, while at the same time improving the business environment and investment climate.
