2017 AGM season review
Lucy Newcombe, Director of Global Corporate Communications at Computershare, takes us on a tour of the 2017 AGM season, locally and internationally.
A trend towards use of virtual and hybrid meetings
The move toward online shareholder meetings is gaining increasing attention among companies, investors and corporate regulators. As more virtual meetings take place, companies and investors need to find common ground on best practice to ensure that all stakeholders benefit from the technology, and that virtual meetings replicate the benefits of “in-person” meetings.
What are virtual meetings and hybrid meetings?
We have used "hybrid" to refer to those meetings that offer the advantages of online participation in addition to the traditional in-person shareholder meeting; "virtual meetings" are those conducted wholly online with no physical element.
