As shareholder activism continues to expand, resolutions put to securityholders will continue to face intense scrutiny from all classes of investor. For this reason, issuers must clearly communicate their proposals to ensure investors are able to make an informed decision as to how they will vote. This means a lot more than simply sending out the notice of meeting and proxy form, then counting on the accompanying letter to sell the story; it means you must be proactive.

With a track record of over 70 years, we have combined unparalleled experience with constant innovation to deliver the votes our clients need. Georgeson is the only proxy solicitor to offer true 'global, on the ground, local knowledge', with offices in all the major financial markets. Our understanding of the international regulatory environment is one of the reasons we’re chosen in over 1,000 proxy solicitation, proxy fights and other strategic shareholder transactions every year.

Drawing on our proprietary databases, our knowledge of institutions and recommendations from proxy advisors, we can deliver in-depth analysis of the issues and attitudes of your shareholder base, working with you to develop a customised strategy that meets your specific needs.
