A Look Ahead to 2016 Shareholder Proposals
January 21, 2016 | 1:00pm EST – 10:00am PST – 6:00pm GMT
Join us for a preview of shareholder proposals expected for the 2016 U.S. annual meeting season. A panel of ISS experts will breakdown filings to cover governance-, ESG-, and compensation-related resolutions in 2016, highlighting investor efforts to “push the needle” on a host of issues ranging from climate change to independent board leadership to adopting rigorous clawback policies.
The discussion will be underpinned with an ISS review of shareholder voting statistics for the recently concluded U.S. meeting season, which, notably, featured a significant push for proxy access that is expected to again play out in 2016.
