AGM Snapshot 2017

27 February 2018 / Link Market Services

Welcome to the fourth edition of Link’s AGM Snapshot. Our Corporate Markets team have enjoyed supporting our clients through another busy AGM season. Having managed more than 600 meetings in 2017, we have gathered some interesting insights into voting patterns and trends at meetings.

In this report we provide a global perspective on the Annual General Meeting – by looking at the changes that are driving investor behaviours, and how responsive companies are to those changes.

We also zoom in on the role that good Corporate Governance plays, and what that means for companies as they secure support for their agenda in the lead up to the AGM.

As more of our clients consider the benefits of introducing Link’s Virtual Meeting Technology, we have taken this opportunity to showcase the increased engagement this communication channel provides.

The results of our Client Engagement Survey outlines some of the important considerations for clients when preparing for AGMs.

We hope you enjoy this edition.
