Key Features and Benefits
How Our Policy Construction Process Works
Each year, we conduct an extensive review process to update our Proxy Voting Policies, incorporating input from issuer engagement, client calls and roundtables, global and local policy initiatives, and stakeholder feedback.
In addition, our global research team reviews regulatory changes, market trends, regional best practices, and industry guidelines. We also welcome feedback on our policies via our website. Key developments are integrated into our Voting Policies, published annually in November, and apply to meetings held from January of the following year.
