 Why should we talk?

2014 is shaping up to be a highly scrutinised AGM season, from all angles of the ownership chain. With new remuneration votes, increased focus on diversity, audit, board evaluation, increasing attention on institutional share voting as well as best practice principles for researchers the spotlight is on issuers, investors and proxy analysts alike.

 

There's more pressure than ever before for us all to get these things right together, and we've got a plan for addressing it we'd like to present to you.
