Proxy voting
As a sustainable investor, Triodos Bank seeks to invest in companies that are not in fundamental conflict with its corporate values and which deliver long-term value in harmony with society and the environment. Our Proxy Voting Guidelines provide a reference framework to analyse resolutions put forward at shareholder meetings and to formulate our voting decisions.
The guidelines aim to provide a consistency in our voting recommendations so that they are in the long-term interest of shareholders as well as other stakeholders of a company. They also aim to provide a starting point for reflecting on the role and responsibilities of shareholders generally, and how shareholder rights can be used to improve corporate governance and bring further substance to ethical or sustainable investing. To implement our voting policy, we make use of the services and voting recommendations provided by the European Corporate Governance Service (ECGS).
