´The final aim is that the employees become co-owners,´ said Prof. Verheugen, former vice-president of the European Commision in Mai 2011 at the press conference at the European Univerity Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. He considered the EFP-model presented at the EFP-conference by Prof. Lowitzsch and his colleagues as the best model on the market so far and it should become the basis of the future legislation in Germany.
