RE: Voted - Every share counts13 Sep 2021 22:19
Normally an AGM would provide an opportunity for the Company to be held to account for its performance. But, a virtual AGM greatly limits the potential for shareholders to raise challenging issues and hold the floor until the company representatives experience the anger and frustration of shareholders to a point where it might impact on the future behaviour of the Company. The chances of posing an effective challenge in relation to their responsibility to promote 'shareholder value' is greatly limited, as the virtual nature of the meeting means that the Company controls the acceptance of questions and does not allow follow up challenge to a diversionary answer.
Can anyone suggest how, in these circumstances, we can get the Company to develop and implement an effective communications strategy, including a shareholder communication strategy?
