2024 was another record-breaking proxy season for submitted shareholder proposals. Companies faced a resurgence of traditional governance proposals and new proponents across the political spectrum, and some companies that historically flew "under the radar" for shareholder proposals found their governance practices in the crosshairs.

In one of our favorite annual programs, ISS's Marc Goldstein is joining us again to share insights with the corporate community. Marc will discuss what transpired in 2024, ISS's policy updates for 2025 meetings, other trends and themes expected to impact the 2025 proxy season and emerging issues for the coming year and beyond. Davis Polk's Ning Chiu and Jasper Street Partners' Rob Main will join Marc to provide color commentary.

Joining us are:

  • Marc Goldstein, Managing Director & Head of U.S. Research, ISS
  • Ning Chiu, Partner, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP
  • Rob Main, Managing Partner, Jasper Street Partners

Among other topics, this program will cover:

  1. 2024 Proxy Season Review
  2. Changes to ISS Policies
  3. Director Elections
  4. Shareholder Proposals
  5. "Say-on-Pay" Support
  6. Anticipated 2025 Trends and Themes
  7. Long-term Emerging Issues
