ZURICH (Reuters) - Syngenta (VX:SYNN) has responded to a series of complaints from a group of shareholders who have been pushing for change at the Swiss agricultural chemicals company.
Basel-based Syngenta is under pressure to boost shareholder returns after fending off a $47 billion (31 billion pound) takeover approach from U.S. seeds developer Monsanto (N:MON) in August.
A number of disgruntled Syngenta investors set up a group called the Alliance of Critical Syngenta Shareholders.
