Mere end en femtedel af selskaberne på FTSE 350-indekset (UK) står overfor betydelige uenigheder blandt aktionærholdninger til en række områder op til generalforsamlingssæsonen. Det gælder især direktørløn og direktørvalg, der topper listen over investorernes uenigheder. De markante konklusioner er indsamlet af Minerva Analytics og Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association og er ubehagelig læsning for mange direktører i britiske virksomheder.
The annual AGM Voting Review used data from Minerva Analytics to analyse the results of the 2019 voting season. It found 81 (23%) of the FTSE 350 companies attracted dissent levels of over 20% on at least one resolution at their AGM last year. Investors voted against 148 AGM resolutions during the period. While this is level with the figure in 2018, it is significantly higher than the 2014 to 2017 period when the number of resolutions drawing investor dissent ranged from 86 to 128. Executive remuneration remains one of the most controversial issues. Some 55 resolutions saw some kind of shareholder rebellion in 2019– up from 38 in 2016, although only one resolution was defeated last year.”
