Report on virtual shareholder meetings and efficient shareholder communication

In 2021, the European Commission requested ICLEG to consider the issue of virtual shareholder meetings and efficient shareholder communication in the framework of Action 12 of the 2020 Capital Markets Union Action Plan, and five ICLEG members (Mónica Fuentes Naharro, Marco Lamandini, Lina Mikaloniené, Christoph Teichmann and Martin Winner) were charged with producing a report on behalf of the Group. Gerald Spindler provided expertise on this work as observer. After consultation within the Group, this report reflects the advice of ICLEG to the European Commission as to matters that ICLEG believe merit further consideration.
