What is Proxy Form?



A proxy form is a form that shareholders receive with their invitations to attend an AGM and that they fill in,if they want to appoint a proxy to vote for them on a resolution.

Shareholders who buy shares through broker-dealers do not vote directly with the corporations and thus do not always need to sign physical proxy forms. Broker-dealers act as a proxies and cast votes on the shareholder’s behalf.

Interested shareholders may vote at the meeting by either becoming a registered owner or by requesting that the broker tender the proxy to the shareholder.

Shareholders become registered owner by requesting the physical stock certificates for a fee. Shareholders may cast direct votes by physically appearing at the annual general meeting.
