Your 2015 AGM and beyond
12 January 2015
The 2014 AGM season was challenging for many listed companies as they grappled with significant regulatory change: the requirement to prepare a new style remuneration report, the replacement of the business review with a standalone strategic report, the requirement to report on the company’s greenhouse gas emissions, and enhanced auditor and audit committee reporting requirements.
Companies will be relieved that the amount of regulatory change that will impact on their 2015 AGMs is fairly limited, with the greatest impact on those companies with a controlling shareholder.
