Our superior shareholder meeting service greatly improves your interaction with investors and enhances your fund governance. Central to this service is a secure online proxy voting solution that significantly increases shareholder participation and helps you get resolutions passed at Annual General Meetings (AGMs) and Extraordinary General Meetings (EGMs). The service extends to full project management of fund restructuring initiatives. This secure, sophisticated online voting site can be utilised via the FundAssist web site or it can be made part of your own web page. While we see online voting as the way for the future, we also personalise and coordinate paper and fax responses, combining results from both and improving the accuracy of the tallied votes. For AGMs, we monitor and solicit votes to ensure quora are met thereby avoiding the cost of meeting postponement. Major decisions, such as fund restructurings, require shareholder approval of resolutions at EGMs and also require higher acceptance levels. UCITS IV offers opportunities to rationalise fund ranges and management company structures and introduce master-feeders. This highly effective service can be pivotal in ensuring these initiatives succeed. We coordinate requisite input from your legal counsel and transfer agent at the outset of each project. Real time voting statistics are available throughout the process and can be used to guide the solicitation process. Detailed reports are provided for the shareholders meeting and are updated to reflect shareholder holdings as at the close of voting. The service provided can be concentrated on the shareholder voting process or can provide a full project management service to implement your restructuring initiatives. Our project management service coordinates all parties involved in the initiative and ensures the project runs to a pre-agreed schedule and budgeted costs. Summary:
